What I'm saying is I have an SS and I accidentally bought the f3 control arms and I have to get them sent back so I followed the RockAuto form and I bought the fe5 ones instead as shown in the picture just wanted to make sure that these are the ones that's going to fit

AGAIN,
The HHR LCA's are cast aluminum, NOT stamped steel.
PERIOD.
If you bought the stamped steel ones they are for a COBALT, not an HHR.
I don't care what the RA site says, they arer NOT interchangable.

X3, send them back. Genuine GM is the only control arm for the SS.

OTTP seems to be now selling ball joints for the SS, this is a new development.

HHR SS lower control arms.

I was told that the lower control arms are only to be bought from acdelco parts or original GM. Went on rockauto.com and I'm about to order these FE5 LOWER CONTROL ARMS FORM ACDELCO. Buy it or don't buy it I made a mistake buying before and completely wrong these are more expensive but I need my car in the road by the weekend need advice to buy now or don't buy please help 🙏

NOT the correct part number. Please see post #30 for the correct part numbers and go to a GM parts department.
Is that clear enough? I would think this 4 page thread is pretty thorough.

The 25930725 arms are currently unavailable at RockAuto, disregard these part numbers, they do not fit your HHR

25930724 arms are in stock, for now!

https://www.crateenginedepot.com/Cob...25-P10954.aspx

You can order here if you like.

The part number fits the Cobalt and HHR but only in the SS configuration.

"fits" is not always the same as "correct part".
