How much else did you have to change out??

I let a local shop change out my shocks when my back was injured, and it looks (feels) like they broke something on my suspension (alignment shop said I needed to replace the lower A-Arm).

A quick search at LMC revealed a 3/4 ton OEM replacement A-Arm, but nothing for the 1/2 ton.

Has anyone tried it? What else did it take? Anyone know of a driver's side A-Arm that will fit an '86 in good condition?
