Default How long can I drive on these?

Hey, I have some bad lower control arms. I think only on the passenger side because that is the only side I hear any sound coming from. I was wondering about how long I can drive on these or what will happen. I definitely do not have enough money to fix these....

Depends on how bad they are but not long and if they blow then you're out of commission. Price out a couple at a junkyard till you can afford new ones. Junkyard ones run about $45.
