How cheap are we talking about? I'm interested in changing out my RC joints.

100$ shipped for the set of the uppers that connect to cross member ,I was thinking it would be at least 200$.I am happy,I will update after put them in.He even sent them out today.Need to find a big wrench to get that lock nut first.I am going to go and change every bushing on the kit as time goes.The big ones were toast.

Ok,I better read the rules,fell free to delete my post if you fell the need.If anyone has a link to the lower bushings on RC long arm that be nice,might as well change them when arm is off.
