I've run into the same issue a few years ago and ended up having to get dorman (not the biggest fan).They seem OK. No issues with them yet.
DORMAN 522774 - right
DORMAN 522773 - left
They still seem available? Not which is better, some of the dorman and mevotech I've seen had been pretty abysmal at times.
RockAuto has them for cheap! Not the original OEM replacements but probably reman's. Why not just replace both of them with a tubular a-arm from Midwest Chassis or BMR Suspension?
If you can send me a link to get the bushings that would be great that’s what I’m gonna do I’m going to buy a ball joint and replace the bushings. The control on must got damaged in shipping they’re sending it back to Warehouse.
Some people have a tendency to make it out to be no big deal to work on something but forget to mention that they have the proper tools to get the job done. Bushings can probably be removed with an air hammer but the ball joint is a pressed in deal and you will most likely need a press for this. Now aftermarket tubular A-Arms come with bolt in ball joints.
you need to decide if you want stock rubber or poly......poly is the easiest to install if your not mechanically inclined ....the ball joint is not hard at all....drill or grind out the stock rivets....the new ball joint uses bolts
Did you end up buying new ones? What did you go with? I was wondering about mevotechs since I don't own a press to try myself with replacing the bushings and ball joint.
I did the passenger side I wound up going with the movatech. My only issue was I snapped the two bolts on the upper strut it was a nightmare to get them out I had to drill out the broken bolts then I had to re-tap the holes the strut mount is discontinued.
