I'm due for lower ball joints on my 2008 IS250 AWD. I'd most definitely prefer some stiffer ball joints & have seen people talking about using IS-F ball joints on their ISX50, but will they fit on AWD models? This would be perfect for me, I'd love to stay OEM with a stiffer feel. If they don't I'm curious as to what my other options are... Thanks for any help!

JM2C but a ball joint can only be so stiff before it's not moving part. Next up,, weight bearing ball joints (spring is pushing on it to suspend the car), always have more free play than the upper joint. Your best bang per buck is replacing aged rubber joints w poly and installing a good LCBA.

You might also look into the ISF EPS ECU... it's a night and day change.

The AWD lower bushing are not same as the RWD/ISF.

If you want a stiffer feel. Then I recommend the Moog brand lower ball joints. You also need some good ball joint pullers. For the AWD it's a PITA lower front ball joints.
