i need to replace the control arms for the g-vr4. after a search, i found the sticky for control arms from autozone.
the units from autozone is $120 per side now. so i did a search for 1g eclipse control arms on ebay and this units showed up.
so much cheaper but part numbers are not the same. also the sticky mentioned a slight difference in the bushing between the eclipse and galant control arms.

so, can i still use these since they are still for 1g eclipse like the autozone units? thanks in advance.

Go to Rockauto.com




Look for the "sticky" post that has a GVR4.com discount code for even better price. (your shipping may be different)

It used to be that the listed the wrong part for the GVR4. They seem to have corrected that. As to the part fitting...check out this thread.

i guess it is the same and will fit. i am basing this on the rock auto part numbers.

520-837 is replacement for oe# mb573094. thanks for the input. i'll be getting the ebay control arms.

I bought those arms(the ebay ones) for my galant, and they work great, have nice ball joints also /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

^thanks for confirming the ebay control arms.

i did a bit more search about the control arms. it seems that the arms should be the same as long as it is for the 2.0 engine.
do not get the control arms for the galant or eclipse that have 1.8l engine.
