What will a Front Lower control arm cost for a 1993 GS?

Sounds like you might be at the mercy of the auto wreckers or dealership, methinks.

That's what I was afraid of. Any other way of getting one would be retardedly expensive. Thanks.

No worries, the junk yard said they're about $350CD so I can live with that. No just hafta fork over the $400 for the rim my manager crushed when he curbed it

They really want a lot for them on the West coast or the price has shot up in the last 5 or 6 years. The local scrapyard where quoting $60 each back then when I was building a fabrication jig to weld up tubular 4340 control arms replacements. I ended up getting a set for free from someone scrapping their car. At the time I didn't have access to a TIG welder so the project only went as far as making a set of mild steel mock-ups to test fit the design on the car. The jigs became scrap metal 2 years ago when I no longer had a place to store them.
