Replace lower control arm bushings or whole control arm?
When I replaced the front shocks on my 05 last spring, the lower control arm bushings that the shock goes through were completly junk. I have put it off long enough and its time to get it fixed. Do I definitely need to replace the whole control arm or is there a chance that the shop might be able to replace just the bushings? I can get both lower control arms complete with upper ball joints from Rockauto for $300 shipped.
Well its will probably cost a pretty penny, since they are going to have to pull the entire front end back apart. This would be a good time to switch to greasable joints, since you might want to realign the truck afterwords anyways.
