Used what? Steel or cast? You were not clear on that.

Probably so they can charge the cost of the whole arm, as opposed to just costing out the bushing and a wee bit of labour. ????

I posted the Problemsolver bushing with the zinc coating part number.
I don't know their reason, but that's what they have all said...They probably figure it's faster to just change out the whole arm..

They put Moog LCA’s in the BlackSwan for the safety inspection in July and they are just fine! Surprisingly the ball joints didn’t come with grease zerks
