steering parts.
« on: August 15, 2011, 12:51:57 PM »
does anyone have any parts cars? I need a front a-arm for the drivers side of my 81 sx4. Any suggestions on used, or new a-arms if they still exist would be greatly appreciated.

If im not mistaken the sx4 a-arm is the same as the large body eagles...They are a little more common....they are around but shipping on somthing like that is a fortune. I would check local junk yards first.

New lower arms for one side only are, or at least were recently, available from parts stores.  I think they were by Rare Parts.
I'm right 98% of the time, and I don't care about the other 3%.
