Listen... stay away from Auto Anything....you might as well be buying your parts at dealer cost. There prices are terrible, and there shipping process is unnecessarily long.

Rockauto is the best. But if they are back ordered....the dealer may be your only option. They probablly won't hammer you on the control arm, there pretty cheap...but the P/S pump...

$210 for the pump and a set of control arms is pretty good considering the first post you made had the pump by itself at over $300. But, do you not have a salvage yard near you? a "u" pull it place?? I got three of them by me...take my tools and I can "pick" any part I want.

and I have to agree with monkeywrench...i got a set of exhaust tips from autoanything...long story short, i wanted to return them and it would have cost me more to return than what i paid for them. They claim "easy returns" but that is a bunch of bs because they are just a 3rd party seller and you don't deal with them directly on a return. For example when I wanted to return the tips, I found out that they actually came from a company in Canada and I had to go through them to return them, which meant getting an RMA, and paying the fees to get them back through customs to go back to canada (ehh)....etc....

The only thing I ever ordered from AA is my exhaust .... cheapest price I could find and free shipping even with the oversized box.

I know upper control arms from Oreilly are around $97 each with ball joints ... so $210 inst bad at all if it includes the PS pump.
