Stock Control Arms

[saki669]

Anyone have any stock lower front control arms they want out of the garage? I need at least 1 of them for the stock bushings (in good shape).
PM please. I'll pay for shipping or come pick it up if its in the area.
Thanks.

I have a set, not sure how good the bushings are but I'll take a look, jsolorza is coming up today so if you aren't far from him I could send them with him(if he doesn't mind), let me know asap and I'll take a look at the bushings.

Autozone has the bushings for about $5 each. Hardly worth the PIA to get them out of the arms.

AutoZone wanted $25 each for them and they werent OEM quality.

ya, you wont get them out of the arms without destroying them

I just cut them out with an angle grinder. It takes 2 min. The stamped steel is paper thin on the stock arms.
My JKS adjustable arms use the OEM style rubber bushings and I want to replace them with the same type. The poly ones are just too harsh in the control arms.

I've got those same JKS LCA's. The biggest PITA was getting the OLD ones out!

Before I put the new ones in, I cleaned them up a bit and added some anti-seize.

dang, he left a little while ago, the bushings were not in the best of shape though anyways. If you still want them I could ship them to you for spare bushings, I would just chop saw the arms by the bushings and mail them off, let me know.
