    Hello,

    I replaced my left lower control arm today because the bushings were a bit noisy & lately when I braked it pulled to the left. You can actually see the rear portion of control arm shift inward when braking. I bought a new one from Toyota. I still have the same problem. :confused:

    I remember that I had to reinstall the old adjustment sleeve on the front bushing the front bolt goes through it. Do I have to do the same for the rear? I don't remember seeing a bolt sleeve on the rear bushing but maybe I missed it. The old LCA is at my job. I'm gonna check the old part tomorrow but has anyone had this happen before? Is there a bolt sleeve on the rear bushing as well?

    Thanks

    i bet you have a bad front caliper causing the pull. one is frozen so the other has to do all the work
