    I've had some health issues this past year , and haven't been on the forum very much. The Magnum is running better than ever. I did get another machine for therapy.

    Thank you too! I know about wanting to skip out on work...but I do have tomorrow off, so it's off for an oil change and AC recharge and maybe get a wash and wax in on the car in the afternoon. Only got a few days left for the photo contest this month...

    Happy Birthday! I hope you have a fantastic day!

    Nice way to sneak in your own birthday thread without many knowing it... :)

    Glad to hear you don't need control arms... They're far too expensive.

    As for the bushings, why have such a wimpy piece of rubber for so much horsepower? Just doesn't make sense as they really aren't durable. I'm on my second set and they're already showing signs of wear. I was looking at the Pedders urethane replacements $160 per pair which is a bit steep in my eyes.

    What's worse is that it turns out that when I pulled the control arms out to do the bushings that I pierced the grease cup with my balljoint breaker on the left (without knowing) and subsequently filled it with water while spraying off the bottom of my car last winter. Naturally water and balljoint don't mix too well so I'm up to nearly .060 of play desperately needing them replaced. The control arms were on backorder for nearly 6-7 months so I'm glad to finally have them. 'Least there are new bushings in the new control arms.

    Did you ever find your lower control arms? I just bought some from https://www.mopar-wholesale.com/ and dealt with Billy. You can reach him at (813) 872-6645. He's in Wholesale parts but if you contact them make sure that you make it clear that you want the online wholesale price which is $261.80 USD.
    Part numbers are ;
    Right 4895040AC
    Left 4895041AC
    Hope this helps.
