It can be a big problem actually. Even if everyone says "all supra's do that". It's abnormal wear and tear on your control arms and other suspension and front end parts. As well as causing uneven wear on your tires. If left alone long enough it can get really expensive to fix, especially if something decides to "give" in a hard turn at 60mph+.

I found some CV boots:

But no CV joints, or upper arm bushings...
I was thinking about replacing the suspension anyway, since it's a pretty bumpy ride.

There are NO CV (Constant Velocity Joints, FWD vehicles only) boots or parts on the supra.

Don't waste time, and do as I said earlier.

Here's a website that sells bushings. upper, lower or whole kit. Rubber or Polyurethane. You can even buy it bushing by bushing. You may be able to find cheaper elsewhere, but for 7M parts, I use this site as a guideline.

Who ever said all Supras make that noise is incorrect caue my Supra don't make that noise or any noise like that.It could be serious,it may could be minor but finding the problem shouldn't be hard to find.Just don't be like some people that drive and drive and pretend it's not a big deal.Get it checked out A.S.A.P Good luck.
