I rebuilt the entire suspension on my Regal and replaced my rusty control arms with Dorman's, they fit well and I didn't have to do a thing but install them.
Between having to blast mine and R & R everything I couldn't pass up just installing a loaded control arm at a great price.
My time is worth money also.

Don't forget to grease the upper joint and tighten the nut on the sway bay bracket:):)

Yup, did all of that over a year ago

That sounds like a real deal/ How many miles so far?
Drove it a mile to the alignment shop currently waiting to get the time to replace the smoking 307 with my 355.

One of my next projects is the front suspension and at that price it is a pretty easy decision on what to do

I haven't really touched my suspension other than shocks and F41 sway bars, but once I have my engine back together and installed, it's probably the first thing on the list. These will make things a lot easier.

The lowers I bought from somewhere else but they were bare so I had to install the bushings and ball joints that I bought off RockAuto.

Are they replacements or factory?
