Default UPS dropped off some suspension goodies

Today my Toyota Supra T.T. LCA and rear sub frame mounts arrived. I can't wait to install the Supra sway bars and see how these two mods help the handling of this car. Here are some pictures with part numbers for those of you out there that do not know the part numbers.

The supra lower control arms replace the worn oem arms with new bushings and balljoints. Reason why people go with the 93-96 supra arms is because of the cheaper price and firmer bushing. The 97-98 supra arms are more expensive and cost almost as much as the oem lexus ones, but are made of aluminum.

The rear supra subframe mounts enable you to mount supra-spec swaybars in the rear. The front does not need any modding to mount supra sways.

Damn, my LCA bushings are broke, and those above are still expensive to me.
