Thank you for going into such depth about the control arm of what it does, to how important it is and what happens to our vehicles when it's time to get it serviced and replaced.

I'm looking to purchase my own bushings to save money and not get ripped off by the local mechanic garage. But I see there are so many different types available to my car (just a basic Pontiac, nothing fancy) - front lower forward, front lower inner forward, front lower rearward ...what do these mean?

[@nickm7447]

there are multiple bushings on each arm I believe, that's what it is probably referring to. This isn't a super easy fix. May be better off replacing the whole control arm that should be a bit easier but still not simple unless you're quite mechanically inclined

Set me back 2k to do the upper and lower on my Explorer. Ridiculous

[@diamondback210]

Still cheaper than putting a down payment on a car

My passenger side wheel is shaking when going slow. Mechanic is gonna change my upper control arm. Seems like my wheel is bouncing on flat smooth roads
