Upper and Lower Control Arm Replacement

[Zieg95x]

I have a 06 XLT V6 4X4 and it needs the lower ball joints replaced. I want to do the Upper Control arms and Lower Control arms together. When looking on the Ford Parts website I don't see the Motorcraft lower control arms listed but a lot of other parts stores have them listed. The part numbers are MCSOE99 and MCSOE129. They have the Genuine Ford units listed. I want to do them myself to save money. Do these fit? Should I go with aftermarket units?

Look over in the modified section and see what they recommend. I know that there is at least one thread on aftermarket A-arms. Moog is a good brand to use so no worries on my end going that way.

Be aware if you are considering Raybestos LCA's. Wonder if they corrected this?

Moog and Raybestos are now Chinese garbage. Motorcraft's (Made in Canada) is all that's left that's worth the labor.
