Failed inspection because my control arm bushings are worn out. Do you have to replace the whole arm or can you do just the bushings ?

easiest bet is to jus treplace the arm as a whole. you would have to take it out anyway and you will be getting a new ball joint at the same time.

price depends on the style arm you have

Luckily I'm just doing the right which appears easier.

Also stay away from Monro. I had them do a small repair. This wasn't good enough for them. They called me up and told me one of my rear struts was blown out and the fluid was seeping into my rear drums. So I went down there and those aholes sprayed some king of fluid up my wheel well all over the strut ect to make it look legit. Too bad the way they did it was sloppy and was dripping down the inside of my tire like a stream of piss.

The asst. manager was some kid who wasn't good at lying and seemed remorseful. On my way out he showed me an obviously blown strut and told me mine wasn't this bad and would last a while longer.
