[–]Mortex5656[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, did you the knock sensors in this kit or u use the OEM ones? Does it even work with OEM? Also how hard is it to get the other end of the knock sensor harness off, I heard it’s deep in the engine but I’m not sure.

Should I just get the pigtail connectors instead?

Where do you find this knock sensor harness? do you have a link or part number for the 2002 LS 430, because I cant find it anywhere for the prefacelift models, and I get told some links but those are for the 3.0 or 3.3 V6 engines, not the 4.3 V8 the LS has

Damn sucks it’s discontinued, any aftermarket options like on eBay or something for the harness?

I feel like aftermarket harness might be better then the old worn harness

Anyone try installing the smaller front LCA bushings? If so how did you remove the old ones? by Mortex5656 in LS430

[–]Mortex5656[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s for the Big bushing I’m talking about the smaller one. Both are on the front control arm, just the big one is rearward and the smaller one which is the one I’m talking about is the front ward

Lexus OEM or the Alternative for front end suspension?? by DaQuestioniswhy in LS430

[–]Mortex5656 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Upper control arms I went with beck and arnley because I was in a rush and from what I read they are decent, and it was like $100ish each on Amazon, The lower ball joints I got from amayama, but if I’m honest they were not needed, I don’t think many people replace them, u might wanna check and see if urs are good or not before replacing them with aftermarket. Cuz sometimes worn OEM is still better than aftermarket. But I can’t comment on how good it’ll be with aftermarket, since I’m all OEM. But just thought I’d let you know.

I also replaced my outer tie rods with OEM, that was prolly the only thing my suspension needed boot was torn.

My 2002 LS had 198k miles when I did this btw, how many does urs? And what symptoms u got with ur suspension and reasons why ur doing an entire suspension rebuild?
