Yeah uppers are easy, same as ball joints. Uppers are easy, but the lowers are just time consuming and when you have A.D.D. and an extreme lack of patience, time consuming = getting frustrated which = things end up broken.

I replace all 4 control arms with new one that came with bushing and ball joints. Got them off of E-Bay when it was said and done it was $325. Rock Auto may be a good place to look also.

It was right around $500 when I was done with front end. This what I did:

New control arms with bushings and ball joints
Outer tie rods
Inner tie rods
New Rack bushings
New wheel bearings for the front
Front end alignment
