Just look at Advance too...and they are correct, uppers have to have the whole upper control arm...if you're willing to buy from Advance I can save you some $$$. Just let me know.

How about using coupon code P20 on Advance website...you can get MOOG uppers with control arms and Moog lowers for $278 plus tax....


uppers part # is K7424
lowers part # is K7411

buy them online, use the discount BAM theres $50 off using promo code P20...select pick up at store, print the receipt and go pick up your parts.

i found a an entire set; both upper control arm/ball joints, lower ball joints and new tie rod ends on ebay for $135. but i went out and looked at them a little bit ago and they look fine, think ill do an alignment myself at the auto hobby shop here on base.

According to Moog's site, they only offer upper control arms...no lowers.

Here is a list of parts and part numbers for their parts:
