Well, I replaced the upper a-arm today, and much to my surprise when I removed the front wheel, I discovered that the a-arm installed, was not a stock one. I got the whole assy. through Autojunk and put it in, which relieved a lot of slop and a squeak when I turned right, I still need to replace all of the ball joints and the outer tie rods. I also wanted to know if anyone knows where to get a poly bushing kit for the front end? How would I go about doing that? engine and tranny mounts too. I want to see if the aftermarket one, which is a fully adjustable, two piece deal is repairable, or the ball joints replaceable. I'll add some pictures soon.
 






The ball joints mostly come with the upper arms in them already, unless you have an arm that takes replaceable BJ's. Those arms have a larger diameter hole for the replaceable BJ's.

Summit has everything you need. There are other sites as well, but here are the links for your rig. ;)

hell yes

Thank you, time to get back on the road. I want to take a trip to the junk yard and see some of the sploders they got there. Maybe I can pull some useful stuff, or better yet, maybe I can find a useable pcm?
