Is 225$ for new control arms with whiteline bushings worth it? because my balljoint do need replacing but if i have to replace something i usally get an upgraded part to replace it.. and control arms rang fomr around 50$ for two from a junk yard to 800$ for full race ones... i havnt talked to anyone you has whiteline bushing in use on there car..

***spell check works in aiding us in answering questions properly*** The price is valid if you don't want to do any of the work yourself. if you are a more DIY person then buy the bushings and ball joints separately and press them in yourself.

Which ones? F or R. PDM had the best prices when I got a front LCA. But you can probably get them dirt cheap from a place that imports clips i you dont really need the bushing, they might have some laying around, thats where I got my rear LCA from.

i bought mine with OEM bushings from PDM as well...

the inner bushing that they replace with a whiteline one is probably not as important or noticeable as putting whiteline bushings elsewhere.

i would suggest getting the regular ones.

also, i mentioned this in another thread like this that there are suppliers of that exact same piece (LCA w/ pressed-in ball joint and inner bushing) that i am trying to get in with so that i can give eveyrone a better deal on them.

$64 usd each + shipping is too much.

gimme a couple weeks and i can get them for you much cheaper.

if you do contact him, tell him that bing referred you, that way he will know i'm for real and not some clown looking for jobber pricing for personal gear.
