Also, there are 2 different styles of control arms that will only work on select years. What year is you car?

For a 1996 Beretta the problem is they want 500$ for a lower control arm on a beretta. So If I can source it elsewhere used that would be great :ROFL:

rockauto.com, about $80 shipped in north america (less in the states...) cheapest you will likely find, brand new, with new riveted ball joint...

in local parts stores, about $150 for the part alone

was that me ?
I have a like new passenger side control arm. the car has been sitting since 2005 and had a ton of new parts put on it, i cant say for sure if this part is that old or not, but it only has 36,000 KM since 2005 i know that.

Part shows little rust but most part is still painted, has stickers still on it, riveted ball joint new bushings.

Least i can take is $40, plus shipping, i would like a little more out of it but like berettaboi said you can buy brand spanking new from rock auto for $80 shipped. if i ever need this part im going to pay more then ill sell this one for.


I am probably 5 hours from Montreal if you wanted to drive and pick it up lol. i have a basement full of parts.. anything else you may need i probably have it.. doors, hoods spoilers ect. and alot of smaller parts.
I have brand new ebrake cables as well, front to rear .. to each wheel.

i do have a drive side one still on the car, its going to scrap tomorrow if i get rest of parts off it i want today, i cut the ball joint off with a grinder though just to get the axle out and i dont know the condition of the bushings.

ya sorry, ive decided im better off to keep this one and use it..

I can get you a pair of used ones if that will work, thought you were looking for new..

I have driver side here on a 94 v6. and i can get passenger side from 94 quad at the junk yard..

Not sure you specified what side it was you needed. or do you need both ?

By the time you buy a used one and buy new bushings... rears are $18.00 not sure how much front bushing is, and ball joint i think i just paid $35 or something crazy for one.. you can buy the control arm with bushings and ball joint from rock auto and shipped to your door.

By the time i was to drive to the junk yard $20 in gas and plus the part is still gonna be like $30 before shipping and no ball joint and used bushings..

Id be crazy to sell the one i have because i think im in need of a passenger side ball joint, ive done both rear bushings already and driver side ball joint but now ive got a pull to the right and no tire wear so im not really sure.. i would have been better off buying new control arms with bushings. ive already spent $40 on bushings and around 40 for a ball joint plus time to change everything.

If i was you.. i would save up and just buy new from rock auto. and then your done with it and last a long time.

you don't have to apologies it's totally understandable.

My car is my DD so I needed something quick to fix her up and get her up on the road. I already have the Ball-joint and bushings as I was gong to fix a sloppy suspension but I hit a filled pothole and broke my lower control arm.
