Control Arms

Quick question ya'll. I've got my lovely 07 LS and both my front ball joints are whacked. I need both control arms now obviously. I can't see them being different between the two, but I'm checking with the people who def. would know, vs. the dealer who will just guess. Can I get the performance handling arms from what I'm guessing is the SS arms and will they bolt up the same? I can only assume the joint and the metal are better materials.

Any feedback would be super. Thanks.

Hey bud. Your LS has FE1 control arms. You can bolt up a SS/NA(FE3) or SS/SC(FE5) control arm with no problems. The FE3 and FE5 arms will work. When you go to the FE3/FE5 arms, they are cast aluminum not stamped steel. The bushing are poly not rubber in the FE3/FE5 arms aswell. Hope this helps.

Excellent. I was able to take an SS we had on the UC lot and compare. They looked the same, but as I said I was looking for confirmation, and they are now on order. As well as progress springs and Koni yellows. Thanks for the info, see ya'll at the cones.
