Need the part # for the 1LE front lower control arms. Has anyone found them to be more communicative than the stock arms ?? How about ride quality?? Also apparently there was some problem with the ball joint needing a different castellated nut than the stock one . How about the part # for it ??

 

TTT . I know these parts are not expensive and surely someone must have used them .

 

I just put them on my car . I can't comment on the ride , I haven't driven it yet. Here are the parts number #1LE Front Left Lower Control Arm (GM p/n 52367658) (arm complete with bushing)
1LE Front Right Lower Control Arm (GM p/n 52367659) (arm complete with bushing) . As far as the nut the threads are coarse 9/16-12.I made my own (work at a machine shop) as I could not find them anywhere execpt GM, an didn't want to wait.

 

Dave,

The only way I can help is to push this to the top again. I know I saw the answer to your question somewhere within the past few months and thought I had saved it, but I can't find it. I may be doing the same thing you're doing this winter, so I'm interested in the answer too.

 

I put them in my '96, not sure if those were the same part #'s but they were the 1LE arms for a 96 car, would imagine they're all the same. The bushings are much firmer and the ride is also. I don't know what the deal is about the ball joint nut, my original one fit right on, same threads Unless somewhere along the line GM changed the ball joint design I would imagine they should all be the same

 

I'm due for some replacements and was looking at these as well is that the right part number? GMpartdirect shows it as a upper and lower steering knuckle??? Anybody want to shed some light on it price isn't bad a little over 100??

 

So the 1LE arms come with bushings and ball joints? Has anyone got a price from one of our "hookups" like Jason Cromer or Dal?
