Default Will This Part Really Work?

I won't know until my '91 Dakota is inspected what exact parts I'll need. I can't even find many front end parts or mechanics willing to work on the truck. The truck is now pulling to the right after I got smacked into in a wreck. For now, assuming i'll need only an upper control arm - will this one on ebay work on my '91? Is this part really compatible for all these year models? thanks

If you go to the stickies you will find a 1990 - 93 Dakota parts book to download. The control arms are in Group 2.

Go to the top of this page and click on “1st Gen Dakota Tech”. First section is stickies. Go to third one down “General Info…..”. Scroll down a ways and you’ll find the downloadable parts catalog. There’s other useful stuff in there you may be interested in.

I couldn't find one that worked for mine. Ended up putting new bushings in the old part. If yours is tweaked could go to your local salvage yard.
