suspension Q

Hello,


Recently my bushing got worn out on the left lower control arm. the mechanic tells me that I have to change the whole lower control arm, but its perfectly fine and it just needs a new bushing.

can I go and buy a bushing or do i need to get the whole control arm?

Thanks in advance

no you only need the bushing and a press. Have a mechanic press it in for you for like $20.

Do you also sell rear sway bar bushings? If so how much or how much for the rear sway bar with everything?
