Best place to buy upgraded control arms, bushings and tie rods?

[MC Hammered]

Took my car in to do an alignment and the tech told me he couldn't do the alignment as my entire front end is shot.

He said I needed to replace my control arms, tie rod assembly and upgrade to poly bushings.

So anyone have any suggestions as to where I can grab all these parts? He told me I should be able to find a kit somewhere but I thought I would ask you guys first.

TIA for any information.

Pelican seems to have the best selection and reasonable prices. I wouldn't say they're the cheapest but they carry OEM-level stuff instead of poor quality knockoffs.

You can try to get a kit cheap from FCP Groton (Foreign Car Parts) they sell kits on ebay and have a warehouse in Connecticut.

I should have phrased my request a bit better.

I wasn't looking for the cheapest place to buy the replacement parts... I was looking for a place to buy better quality replacement parts.

For the control arms he said I should get them with metal ball joints or something like that which is an upgrade from the OEM parts and they would work better due to how low I run.

You won't do better than OE control arms. Offset poly control arm bushings (Powerflex, etc) are good but they will increase the NVH.

Fap99.com is a great place to buy OEM parts and tim is pretty good guy when it comes to service too.

I can get the lemforder arms and oem stuff cheaper than most. Let me know if you would like a quote.

You aren't going to do better than Lemforder unless you go with some nutso tubular/heim joint control arm setup.

Please quote on Lemforder control arms, offset CAB and tie rod assemblies.

You might want to get some offset bushings as well for some extra caster.

thanks for the reminder.

Please quote on Lemforder control arms, offset CAB and tie rod assemblies.

Lemforder arms L - $85
R - $84

Lemforder offset CAB $90 for pair

Tie rods (TRW) - $58 ea
(Meyle) - $30 ea

Plus shipping

So from the reading I have done the Lemforder CA's are recommended over the Meyle but how about the tie rods?

Are the TRW any better than the Meyle?

[monty23psk]

TRW is much better than Meyle. Not as good as Lemforder but up there in my opinion. Apples and oranges comparing Meyle with TRW or Lemforder. Meyle makes a good product when it comes with the HD line which now has 4 year warranty.

I just replied to your PM.
