After I got the bushings out, I see it has been "repaired" previously. So I am looking for another set of control arms.

I sent Root a PM, I've done all I can do. :bom:



Just tell the D/A if he can't supply the correct part to refund the money. He doesn't know jack about a 3:07 axle.

Piece of flat stock, 1/8" or so, welded on the inside of the rear bushing area. Big hole drilled through. There isn't a "neck" on the outside of the A-arm, just a big washer.

So is it bone stock? And do you have a plan for upgrades?

I've been wanting a cushion hitch for some time since I pull a lot of hay wagons. It just so happened that a mechanic at Cat had one and didn't have a use for it. I didn't give much for it, but man oh man does it make a difference.

Turns out that they are $500 new :shock:

Caleb, that's weird how it goes into the receiver. I've only seen them that are a complete hitch.
