I replaced the balljoints just last year and now I have discovered that my bushings on the control arms are bad. Are we able to only buy those bushings or are there any poly bushings that fit in there?
Can we replace only the bushings on the lower control arms?

This sucks. So, there was no point in me going through the cost a trouble last year doing my lower balljoints. :frown:

The ball joint presses into the steering knuckle, not the lower conrol arm. If you get a new control arm, you will not be changing the ball joint. So you didnt waste your time or money.
I'll have to take another look under there again. I couldn't remember that and oh yeah I do now remember that when pressing it in. Thank goodness. It felt pretty sucky thinking I would have done that all for nothing.

Has anyone else worked on or done this since? Anything like this done on the front yet?
Should have asked. Front or rear control arms before
But by the looks of that link the front is possible. Will have to do that to the other one I think vs the entire arm. I can tell you its not hard to get the arm out though.

Yeah, I know. It slipped my mind when typing. You mean you don't have a mind reading monitor with your computer?

I just put on on the passenger side on my 06. Seemed like a good part, and I have had pretty good luck with Dorman.
