    where is the cheapest place to get a set of upper control arms? The whole arm with the bushing and the ball joint. my friend needs to rebuild the suspension in his 74.

    well,if you can't find anything, all ford auto wrecking in anaheim, ca has just about everything. You would have to call them though and see if they ship.

    Or...

    How cheap are you looking to go? If upper control arms are also called "A"-arms, then I have a pair. In fact, I have pretty much a whole front end except center link...if you want it. The only problem is that I'll be out of town for the next two weeks.

    If you want them, please E-Mail to FUELS@rainier.navy.mil.

    Best of luck,
    Atzy.

    Yes they are also called a-arms. We wnat to put in new arms with new bushings and ball joints. I can get them locally for $99 a piece for the complete arm.I've seen them advertised in MM&FF for $89 but I was wondering where any of you guys bought them and what they cost.

    Front end stuff...

    I got pretty much a whole front end from Performance Suspension Technologies (PST) for about $529 on sale. That may be a little more than you want to go, but I know that a number of folk on the board have PST stuff and are very pleased. Of course, it's a little more price-y than the $89-99 that you speak of.

    Their website is www.p-s-t.com .

    Good luck!
    Atzy.
