Hi. New to this mechanic gig. But i have need for a new lower control arm on the driverside front. i have also heard it called a lower a-arm. i have no idea where to turn to get a new one...i searched on the web and i got so many different part numbers on a junkyard search that where for the same part it was confusing. autozone and checker don't have them and can't get them. Please someone HELP!!!!

Thanks,
Touchless

Have you tried a dealer? But it sounds like you are looking for an aftermarket or used part.

You can try 6th Planet Used Auto Parts. Google for them, they are in FL. They are horribly slow but I have had pretty good luck with them and they are affordable. Other than that try a dealer.

Or look at the ads all over this site or rockauto.com.
