Default Front Control Arms & Axles

Yea I noticed today after putting new tires on that p/s is really bad. Bushings are out & on the axles both sides the dust cover ripped on both of them so grease is all over the bottom of my engine. I need to buy both front control arms & axles. Anyone know parts numbers on these?Let alone pricing? Thasnks.

I dont have part numbers for you. but as far as the control arms go you just need to upgrade the bushings with polly( TTStuff has that).
Now theaxles..... My inside boot is ripped and I wanted to see if I could get a whole new one. I called this place called raxles, its been recommended by many different people. Thay have OEM replacements for 150 each and"high performance"axlesw/ lifetime warranty for 350 each, both prices w/o shipping.
When they're shipped to you they also provide return shipping for your old axles.
Just some extra insight 4 you.

Wait... control arms are in the rear, do you mean A-arms up front? If so, why do they need to be replaced? If not, do you mean tie rods (steering)?

Maybe I'm still missing it, and what you actually need are a-arm bushings and/or ball joints (either lower ball joint, or the joint on the tie rods).

Not the ball joints or tie rods. I'll take a photo next time I got it on the lift. It's these in this photo. Number 1.

I'ma do the overhaul & buy all these brushing & replace them.
