    Front control arm kit came w/o sway bar end link brackets...HELP!

    I ordered a front control arm kit (control arms w/ball joints, solid poly control arm bushings, sway bar end links, and tie rods) for a partial rebuild of the front end and they came without the brackets that connect the end links to the control arms. The old ones are a bit rusty but not broken to my knowledge

    Should I just use the old ones from the previous control arms or should I just order new brackets? I'll be waiting for more parts anyways soo...

    Just reuse them.

      Reuse them if they aren't bad.

        Replacement control arms have never come with brackets, not sure where you got that idea.

        As mentioned, reuse or buy new from the dealer. They are not the cheapest doodads anymore though.
