Re: Lower control arm question
Good luck with HF. I went to Northern Tool to get one for mine, because NOBODY else carried one.

Re: Lower control arm question
I believe the lowers are 1 5/8". I did buy a full large impact socket set from HF. They are 3/4" drive if I recall so I had to buy an adapter set to upsize my 1/2" impact. This set is part of thier PRO line. From what I could tell, you cannot buy the individual size, only via a set. I think this set went up to 2".
