Searched but haven't been able to find my answer. Just bought a 2002 LX470 - while the upper ball joints aren't in critical condition, they are leaking and starting to rattle coming down the drive or driving in the fields (this is a farm truck now). I wanted to get them replaced, but the OEM (not OME) replacements are $500+ a piece, why would I do that when I can get some better ones that have grease fittings.
The question though is, will they work with stock suspension? The ACH has been deleted and swapped out for what I assume is LC suspension (was going to do that anyways, I didn't want the ACH). All the other aftermarket performance Uppers say they work with 1.5" lifts, I'm not looking to lift the truck at this time, so if I can use these I will go with the $800 set vs $1k for OEM.

) is our 555 Japanese complete arms. Japanese 555 ball joints (very proven) and Japenese bushings and arm too. Not a bad price considering the quality and ease of install
