Guys,
1983 Cutlass Supreme...
Need your help...I have a damaged passenger lower control arm and I am trying to replace it. Moog does not make the part and if I want to replace it I have to buy a pair (both sides) for $450.
Does anyone know where I can buy a new/refurbished passenger side lower control arm?

The original owner had the lower ball joint welded in and I tried doing that but my welding skills did allow me to get right. I could do what he did (pay someone to weld in the new ball joint), but the arm would still be damaged.
Would like to replace it with something that is not damaged.
 
I'm not completely sure if they do stock parts, but there's a vendor called BMR Suspension that's a member here. I believe they only do performance-oriented suspension parts, but I've never really looked into it. Either way, I think they should be able to help you out
 
Looks like BMR only does performance type set ups and Molly is far from being a drag car, much more of an original cruiser. What sucks is the car is all apart and now I find out they don't make the part...hate to come this far only to half-*ss it.
 
I have a used pair that are in excellent shape. I am in New Mexico, so light surface rust only. Depending upon what you'd like to offer, I have a pair of new ball joints I can provide as well.

I also have an entire refurbished front set of control arms, brand-new slotted stock-size rotors and calipers, arms and spindles cleaned and repainted. They are holding up a Malibu right now (mid-restoration) until I have the coin to buy hub/bearings, rotors and calipers for some S10 spindles.

PM me if this is anything you want. I'm in New Mexico, so shipping may be a bit, but ask, and I will quote.
 
If you need upper front control arms I have a set. The already have energy suspension bushings in them. No miles on them had to use urban machine uppers to go along with b body brakes.
 
Folks...got the right side lower control arm from Speedway motors. It is exactly what is needed.
Getting the bushings and ball joint pressed in tomorrow and putting it back in the car.
Will post some pic when it is all complete.
Thanks for the help.
