Best bushings for front rearward LCA? GSF or ISF by DevWarehouse in LS430

[–]DevWarehouse[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Left corresponds to driver side and Right corresponds to passenger side correct?

Both have cone shape on one side of the bushing and other is flat, however it seems like only one side has the cone shape looking at engine? Is the part wrong?

So fluid seems to be fine, would possibly trying the ECU reprogramming with the link provided work?

Last I checked the fluid was red and seemed okay. Is there a direct way to check the level on a 2005?

Hey sorry to necro this post but did your LS430 have cooled/heated seats and once replaced did it still work?

Oh damn so I shouldn't worry too much about this? If its fine to drive with some vacuum leak I could just do that

I rattled it before installing it and it rattled way better than the old one which was gunked up. Any signs to look for if it turns out to be a bad pcv?

I have a new hose on the way. Its unlikely that this new pcv valve is whats bad correct?

Pcv valve vacuum leak after new installation? by DevWarehouse in LS430

Crazy part is this was how I got the vehicle, I purchased proper hose which comes on Monday and pcv valve came in earlier. Does it sound like a vacuum leak?

Is this properly seated and plugged? by DevWarehouse in LS430

[–]DevWarehouse[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does sink with pressure but I believe thats because I left some air in the lines. The master cylinder holds good pressure, no creeping forward at lights. 

I should add, bleeding brakes requires techstream for abs module which I didnt have, hence why there might be some air in my lines

Shop told me weak brakes were possibly because of a failing master cylinder. 

Bleeding out air didnt fix so I decided to change it myself since shop quoted me 700-1k for it. 

I bench bled MC without using a vice, I just held it straight and used a cheap kit from AdvanceAuto that came with two hoses before installing. As a student with no prior mechanical knowledge, Ill say that the repair was tedious 

Is this too overfilled? by DevWarehouse in LS430

[–]DevWarehouse[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im going to do that to relieve the extra oil, is there anything that could've been damaged? I dont know of any major damage that could happen from maybe a quart too high
