bring grease for the bushings? Not sure what you mean there. The che's I have come with a small amount of grease that you apply to the mounting surface after you clean it. Mine haven't squeaked yet, but like CrazyAl I'm a bit skeptical.

the adjustables I am planning to buy bring grease for the bushings... hmm

+1 I've been running CHE upper and lowers for bout a month now and I've haven't had any squeaking. There are a few more rattles over bumpy roads but nothing severe.

The control arm is a bar that connects the rear axle to the frame of your car. It's what transfers the driving force of your car from the axle to the car itself.

Go and look at your car. The control arms are at the rear of the car, just behind each wheel. There's one on each side of the car.

I've got my eyes on these. You have your choice of ends all priced the same plus free shipping. There may be better deals around but this beats the link posted above. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2005-...temZ7999372953

I had bought them on rpmoutlet and when I mounted them I found they were slightly bent. Now I am dealing with the BBB and with rpmoutlet -.- to have them exchanged. So far nothing has happened and I need them so I am looking for someplace that sells them cheap. I saw www.hotpart.com but I am trying to convince brian to make a rodend/poly combo. The problem I have with mak racing is that he wants 40$ extra in shipping to ship to PR. I might get the Che ones that are basically the same thing but cheaper at $219 Anyone know where I can get them cheaper?

Take a look at the top of MAK's eBay ad and they state, "We beat all prices guaranteed FREE SHIPPING"
Now look where they ship to and it says: WORLDWIDE.
I'd write him and complain that if he's going to say he ships worldwide and guarantees free shipping, put the two together and you get, FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE!
