    I'm trying to help a friend out with her '96 Grand Prix GT. She basically needs new front lower control arms, tie rods and sway bar bushings. I found the tie rod ends and sway bar bushings on Rockauto, but I can't find front control arms for this model. There are replacement front control arm bushings, but I don't think just replacing the bushings is a good long-term fix.

    The other problem with just replacing the bushings is I only see lateral bushings. The other bushing where the control arm is mounted toward the front of the car is literally off the arm so it just floats around so that one is more important and I can't find it either.

    Is there somewhere I can get front control arms for this car? I've seen several interchangable arms for other model years, but I am not familiar enough with this car to know if other models are the same since it's not mine.

    Any help you can give is very much appreciated!

    Did a search for 96 Grand Prix GT front lower control arms and came up with a couple of places that have them. About $200 for the pair.

    I just changed mine on my 97 gt and it's really not that hard of a job. Not sure of how it's done on a 96 but I guess it's similar.
