Lincoln LS Control Arms vs Bushings

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: Midas78

The bushings have worn out on my 2000 V8 Lincoln LS (116K miles), I've been told that I need to replace the control arms. I have read that on the newer LS's the control arms have the bushings attached, but on the older LS's the bushings can be replaced.
I would like to get bushings for all 4 wheel assemblies.

Can I get a price & a comment if its worth it to just get the bushings or if I actually need the control arms?

Thank you.

I can not locate the bushings seperate for 00-02 or 03-06. Looks like you would have to get arms. That's not to say you can't get them aftermarket.

Front arms
XW4Z-3078-AA List $368.53 Inet $274.41 Special $200
XW4Z-3079-AA List $368.53 Inet $274.41 Special $200

Rear arms
6W4Z-5500-AA List $112.03 Inet $83.42
6W4Z-5500-AB List $112.03 Inet $83.42

I did find the front arms at another dealer for less money, so I could sell the front for $200 each!
