Yes the control arms are the same for all years and they are the same for a Supra as well.
They're two different manufacturers. Perhaps one company felt theirs should cost more, or maybe it costed them more to manufacturer so they have to price it at that to attain a profit. Maybe the more expensive ones actually have better bushings and balljoints.
The designs are different from each other, specifically where the two rods meet at the balljoint.

I called Lexus and they told me that 93+ the control arms are wider. I've got the guys at Rock auto calling Beck/Arnley to confirm width before I order again.
Hoping not to have to go thru this again.
