Help identifying lower control arm...
I went to replace the lower control arm bushings this morning and the new bushings to fit the factory lower control arms are way too big. I think these are after market. I have 4 inches of lift on the front. Any idea who makes them?

def not stockrs
as stated hit up your local parts slinger, i prefer advance since they can source daystar parts, but just for giggles ask them to see a stock lower arm so as to understand the true upgradedness of your arms.

good luck with that! I'm pretty sure those are RC lowers. no replacement bushings are availible. I even called RC directly. the only option without just buying new arms is getting some poly bushings and turning them down till you can press them in.

Thanks folks, I turned the bushings sideways and taped up the center pin for now. I need to hunt next week. I'll pull them off when season goes out and try to match some up.

They do look just like Rusty's....but Rusty's use oem bushings. oem bushings are way too big in diameter to fit the bushing hole. I don't know if Rusty's has always used oem bushings or not.
