Replacement Control Arms (TRW or URO parts)

[Ricey]

I need to replace all 4 control arms and I was thinking of buying URO parts but they seem to be more problems than there worth, has anyone and experience with TRW control arms?? I have recently bought Hamburg Trechnic tie rods but they didnt fit, so waste of time and money :(

For the lower control arms, I've been told (by user seafeye) the replacement bushing parts are as follows:

Control Arms

Outer bushing part#996 331 241 04

Inner bushing part# 996 331 244 03

Ball Joint TRW 032 0002 032 009 P1-2

Elephant Racing has replacement bushings - see http://www.elephantr...berbushings.htm

Vertex Auto sells rebuilt control arms. Search their site for control arm for your year Boxster and you'll get multiple results

When I have to replace mine, I will probably spring for the GT3 control arms, which aren't much more expensive than the stock ones

I have used TRW on VW/Audi with no problems but stay far away from anything that comes in a UROparts box. That stuff is the ultimate in rubbish parts.
