Need new Lower Control Arms

2016 Crewmax 4WD, 62kmi

Well, like so many other users here the time has come and my lower control arm bolts are seized prohibiting me from getting an alignment. Kind of frustrating considering i just put over 3k in my truck with new shocks, UCAs, shackles, leaf spring bushings etc and just had it all torn apart but it is what it is and still better than a new truck payment IMO.

I already ordered new oem Bolts/Hardware from yotashop, and i've looked into getting some bushings to replace them in the existing arms but the consensus seems that all bushing available are just not as good as OEM. So considering oem bushings are about 200 a side, i figure i should just get new lower control arms and that way i'll get a new ball joint as well.

TLDR: Where is the best place to order new OEM lower control arms, or if there are any vendors on here please chime in or reach out to me. Thanks

 

I ordered mine from Serra Toyota in Birmingham AL. Super nice folks in the parts department. There was a deal in December and I got the right and left side for less than $500. They were very well packaged. They currently have free shipping and would cost about $625 for the pair delivered to you. Sill cheaper than my local dealer if I pick it up from them.

 

I took a different route.

I bought some dirt cheap used lowers and going to attempt to clean up, press out bushings and replace with polyurethane.

I am only about $150 in to. But haven’t tried to press out/in the bushings yet

I might even get them powder coated if my local shop can do it for about $100

 

ended up lucking out. all bushings were still good they were just on there really really tight. Took my truck home from the alignment shop, loosened them all up and brought it back
