• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Are these pretty much toast?

Dang that looks nasty. Their easy to replace and over all not to expensive

How do I do that I though control arm bushings have to be pressed in. Can i just pop that bolt out and slid new bushings in?
 
You can get a whole new control arm. I got Moog ones for mine for 60 bucks for each side and that includes those new bushings, and new lower ball joints on the control arm. Less of a hassell. Check local auto parts store or advanced auto online and use a discount code. Or rock auto

No. If u buy a new control arm than it comes with it all put together. So all u have to do is take old control arm out and put new on. The new one will have new ball joints riveted on and new bushings

dont bother changing the bushings, just get new lower control arms, your ball joint is shot as well if the one bushing looks that bad.

dorman lca's cost me 98 bucks shipped to my door for the pair.

it was the last thing i changed and all the clunking and thuds stopped after i changed them. car rode like new again. well at least it felt better.
 
I've never done any ball joint/control arm work to these cars before. If I buy a hole new arm do I just unbolt and bolt on? I thought I had to get the ball joint tool (giant arm thing) and undoing the old ball joint is a pain ect?
 


Exactly. If ya want I can copy some pics and how to info on here for u

I read that write up and it seems doable but I know for a face every bolt on my arms are gonna be frozen tight....
 
Well either way u gotta take the arm off so just soak em in pb blaster or do what I've done a few times and use a torch and heat the bolts off. Either way gets them off
