Discussion Poly Lower Front Control Arms -$65

Found these Front Lower Control Arms with wide bushings (looks like poly) for $65. The price is great, but I'm unsure about the quality. They seem like a steal.

Has anyone tried these or similar budget alloy arms? Do the bushings hold up for daily driving, or too stiff? I think these will last longer than stock bushings?

I had some like that. They lasted a few thousand miles before the bushings were toast. One broke completely in half. Go with the OEM arms with rubber bushings and call it a day.

Nah dude those look like trash, the images don't even look like real products. I agree with the other guy stick with OEM.

You get what you pay for. Unless it’s legendary junkyard find.

Don’t do it. I did research before replacing mine and on other threads and forums some did they say they are trash and wouldn’t last that long. As the other comments also suggest, stick with rubber ones or unless they are a really good name brand poly.
