Yes 06 to 11 LS/LT are the same cast aluminium arms.
Don’t order the stamped steel ones, they are similar but for the Colbalt.

Perfect thank you. That's what I thought but was double checking. I heard the steels were marketed for the hhr but it's bad news to actually install them

The reason I'm asking is because I am rebuilding a pair I pulled off of a 2010 LS for my 2009 2lt

No worries with what your doing as long as they are aluminium.

Here is the used ones I pulled and here is one finished one. I received a defective bushing from RockAuto so I'm waiting to get the new one to finish the other control arm
