Re: Control arm replacement options - CPP?

Hmmm. I'm not sure how these would be considered cost effective. Convenient absolutely, but I just rebuilt my entire front end, upper bushings, lower bushings, upper and lower ball joints outer ties rods, and idler arm for less than $250 using all MOOG parts.(rock auto) It took me 6 hours. It won't take any more tools to perform vs replacing them with new units. (other than a grinder/ air hammer if you still have factory riveted top ball-joints)

I would suggest finding a salvage arm and rebuilding them if cost is a factor.
