Link??

They dont look bad, but the bolts dont look like grade 8, and that looks like a regular spherical joint...not a "Johnny joint". Probably wont last too long.

I can't view ebay pages from work, but any time "inexpensive" is used in conjunction with "suspension" or "brakes" it's usually a baaaad combination. By using the word inexpensive, you pretty much answered your own question.

Do you use "recycled" motor oil from Wal-Mart or a name brand motor oil that costs more?

I beg to differ, with the exception that you said usually. inexpensive and anything doesnt mean poor qualit, it justmeans they don't mark up a bunch of steel, and an hours worth of welding 300%. That said, anything car related or not, if it is cheap or expensive, or inexpensive (add your descripter here) one has to check on the quality of the material, quality of the workmanship etc. Ive paid good money for stuff and it junked on me and vice versa paid little money for things that did their job beyond expectations.

I like the recycled motor oil from Wal-Mart bit...:D

I bought mine from this guy - he makes them for A bodies too (upper and lower), just email him. They are reinforced on the rear mounts, unlike the ones you listed. I was very happy with them, and he has a good rep over on MalibuRacing.com.

Those first ones look a little too lite weight for my comfort. John's link look much better. I'm using these and like them very much. Jegster Adjustable Rear Upper Control Arms $159.99 (http://www.jegs.com/p/Jegster/751152/10002/-1/10063)

Thnks for the links on those other ebay arms and the jegsters,they both look a little better,I think I will go with one of those 2 options now. As for basing quality on price,thats ridiculous!
