I would like to know if any of you have had a local shop replace your Caster Arm bushings? If so how much did they charge? My bushings are shot and one of my LBJ already snapped so I am guessing its way past overdue. Would it just be cheaper and easier to replace the whole arm? If you know anyone that can do it locally please let me know. Thanks!

Marlon

Give JPI a call and see what they would charge. A lot of us in the DFW are DIY people, but i'd give JPI a call see what their price is... If it's a little steep you can buy the arms from Sewell for 200 or so with the CL discount.

Thank you sir. I will see how much they charge. I am mostly a DIY person as well but after seeing the damage caused by the lower ball joint snapping firsthand I think I would rather have someone who has done the bushing replacement do it since it seems to be the biggest cause of issues.
