    I have an 08 Grand Prix, need to replace the front lower control arms. How do I determine which suspension I have to make sure I get the correct part?

    Looks like FE2 & FE4 is 34mm sway bar and FE1 & FE3 is 30mm, were is this measured at? Anyway to get a build sheet for this thing from the VIN?

    Thanks in advance,
    John

    Your glove box should have the RPO codes. Look there to see what you have.

    The only difference in the control arms will be the sway bar connection point. Either the sway bar connects to the lower control arm or the sway bar connects from the strut to the bar.

    Either way it really doesn't matter, the lower control arm from either would fit on the car because the arms are exactly the same as far as mounting points are concerned.

    Thanks that helps, my sway bar connects to the control arm.

    Last weekend the hub, this weekend control arm. At least the parts are reasonable price, hopefully this goes as easy as the hub.

    Thank you,
    John
