    Hi,
    I'm looking for a set of stock (good and solid) upper rear control arms for a 64 Skylark and rear sway bar.
    Thanks Bruce

    Hi Jeff,
    Thanks for the reply the 68 to 72 upper control arms are longer than the 64 / 65.
    Thanks Bruce

    I have several sets, but they are not here at my house--they are all in my storage building on my parents farm in VA. I can get them for you in Nov. when I go up there if you can wait that long. My sister in law is having a baby the first week of Nov, so I am defintely going to be going up there.

    Hi Brian,
    Thanks for he reply. I can wait no problem. For mocking up the suspension I can use the old set. I sand blasted them , blew a pin hole in it, then went to weld it up and you know what happens, you chase the hole forever :Dou:
    How much is it going to cost me. :TU:
    Thanks Bruce

    They can be yours for $20 plus whatever shipping costs. I will get them when my nephew is born and I go up there to meet him.
    You do know you can buy the boxed inserts for the lower control arms and weld them in yourself so that you can use a sway bar. That is how I did my cars and they look just like the factory ones. All you need then is the bar itself, the shims (they are reproduced) and the bolts/nuts.

    Hi,
    Thanks again. Let me know when you get them. How do you want payment?
    I already boxed my lower arms, used old control arm bushing centers cut them down and welded them in and used a piece of 1/8 X 2" flat bar wrapped it from one end to the other and welded it soild.
    Thanks Bruce
