97 K1500 lower control arms

Anyone know of a source for K1500 lower control arms? Mine are the stamped steel style and are rusty as hell. Actually everything in the suspension and steering is rusty as hell. 26 years old and 170k everything is original.

Thanks

Paul

Get my stuff from junkers, but I left the rust belt almost 50 years ago, so not sure of who has them new or newish.

Yeah they are available for a C1500 but the 4WD K1500 trucks they aren't available! Looks like mine will be ok with some blasting and epoxy primer. On the other hand the steering knuckles are shot.

I just looked at Carid I hope this is what your looking for. I usually get my parts from Rockauto and was surprised on how simple lower control arms are now gold.

Good luck

Thanks for the link. I was all excited until I clicked on K1500. The K1500 kit does not come with lower control arms!!!
