Default WTB: FRONT UCA's

Looking for a pair of front UCA's (OEM preferred but not neccessary) as my balljoints are totally worn out. Any day now theyre gonna blow.... pm me if you can save me. Paypal ready. Thanks.

Try rockauto.com, I just changed mine after the massacre of the LBJ broke off. It's like 37 bucks each , can't beat that and quick shipping.

I'm having a hard time finding those, the cheapest ones are the beck/arnley ones for 80$ each. Is there a discount I'm missing?

He got the LBJs for 37 a piece. I ordered the Moog ones also and paid the same price. The quality looks really good but I haven't installed mine yet. Do you have to replace the UCA or do you just need the ball joints done?

I just need the balljoints, the upper ones, and it is to my understanding that you need to replace the whole upper control arm in order to replace the balljoints?

Randee973 - How are the balljoints?
