I have a 99 explorer XLT, 4x2 with an upper adjustable two piece control arm, on the right side. Since I'm installing ball joints on both sides I received a one piece instead of the two piece adjustable for the upper right side, can I use the single piece or do I need to get the adjustable two piece. Thanks
 






One piece will work, but I believe you need to purchase a kit (bolts and cam) for the camber adjustment
 






one piece upper control arm

I went with the one piece upper control arm because it looked stronger and was lighter weight. Some alignment shops may claim that they can't align without the adjustable camber/caster bolts especially if you lower the vehicle. I installed the bolts with the larger adjustment capability.
