So, OK, I am just back from the shop and I need new front control arms and struts. Looking to order from Rock Auto. Are the AC Delco OEM control arms preferable to the MOOG, or vice versa? The MOOG are considerably cheaper, both are cast and not sheet metal.

I had to order to meet a schedule, so I went entirely with AC Delco - control arms, struts and shocks. Amazingly, according to my mechanic, sway bar bushings look fine.

 

 

Thanks.

....sob........

 

OldSwede….how many miles on the sway bar bushings? I would replace them as well if they are as old as the rest of the front end....regardless of how they 'look'. BTW, I feel you made the right choice on the LCA's.

 

164k. Your concerns are noted, and much appreciated. I assume that I should just order the end links?.

 

10-4.....ones with the grease zerks

 

Never mind my ignorance. I am new to the HHR "experiemce". I ordered sway bar bushings just now.
