lower control arm
so my 08 aveo5 ls has 120,000km on it and it seems everything is crapping out on this hunk of garbage. i have the dreaded "bang driving over every tiny crack and bump" in the front end, shop said it needs 2 lower control arm bushings...everyone knows its easier just to replace the entire thing so u dont have to press the bushings, at 140$ each i just want to take a hammer to my car, where online, in CANADA can i buy both driver and passenger lower control arms? i found em on partsgeek, but thats american and with shipping and duty its like 300$ please help, my aveos life is on the line.

Rockauto.com has control arms for less than $50. Even with shipping that has to come out way lower than $300.

I would sure recommend the MOOG ones, I bought mine for under 90 each at Auto electric store....I think it took me an hr per side to change them not a big deal. MOOG lifetime warranty....Mevotech's arms I did not like and what i got in the package did not match the description online "greasable ball joint it said" no grease nipple on it, I emailed them and they said oopps.

I got a driver side control arm from Auto Parts in Canada! - Canada Auto Parts Online it was about 70$. I did most of the work myself but had to take it in when it turned out the front bolt hhas siezed in soild and had to be drilled out and a piece of metal welded in place.
Edit. Weird it automatically changed the URL. Also mine failed at about 207,000km
