Hi guys -

the ball joint on my front left lower control arm is toast. I'm at 100K miles and the suspension (and the car) needs maintenance badly.

Where have you guys been buying your front lower control arms?

Thanks,
Paul

 

Try Mazmart

 

or Partsgroup.com

 

ugh..$356 for a new lower control arm As a result, I had to cut back on my suspension budget. No springs for me Just Koni Sports.

 

You could try local junk yards for a wrecked one? Did you ask if Mazmart had one off a wreck? They are a Mazda themed salvaged yard.

 

partsgroup.com has them for like 100 bucks. They are really good guys to deal with too

 

I was going to buy used, except the used lower control arms don't have guarantees that the ball joints are in good condition. I just bought Koni sports so I don't want to have my cheating out delay installation.

 

Partsgroup is used. but they only sell the good parts. they Race RX8s and mx5s... they part out cars all the time and they will not sell you junk parts, only good stuff
