So i picked up a set of upper and lower control arms today from work for 50 bones.
i scored because there adjustable.
the control arms are old and the bushings are shot but it was a good deal.
how would i find the right size bushing for the arms?
the guy who sold them to me said they were rough country.
i couldent fine and RC stamp on them.
the only problem is only on of the control arms is actully adjusting..
theres no adjuster nut off the threads in the middle it just screws on
I got it on a bench at work with a vice but it wouldent free up with PB blaster and some tough turns.
im thinking a setaline torch?
what would be the most safe ,so i can use them?
any input is appricated.

oh PS i put new grease fittings and tryed loading them up with grease also.

 

Do they look like these?



If yes, they are rough country's.

Pm GRIMUS99XJ on this forum. he works for rough country and can help you find bushings if those are rc's arms.

 

there super close to those but they dont have the tabs on them like those do
wil that make a difference

 

I've seen em without the tabs so they might be RC's.

Any chance you can post a picture of them?

 

They could be Teraflex arms too. There older generation arms looked like that, and did not have the tabs. They are good pieces, I had a set for years and beat on them pretty well. I too bought mine used, and had to replace the bushings. I sourced them for a local 4X4 shop, and they were about $50.00 for the set. Good luck with getting them loose. If you have to use acetylene, try to get them too hot, it could weaken the steel, and last time I checked that is a BAD thing!! LOL!!!
