I bent my control arm and axle last night on the front passenger side. How much will it be for a control arm or for repairs?

More for you than for us, thats what I've found out. In Hawaii, you're gonna be paying a lot more for parts- and a lot of stuff has to get shipped in..etc etc

Do you have an estimate on how much replacing the control arm would be?

Just found out, $171 from my toyota dealer.
Has any one replaced their control arm? Is it a simple task or does it need to be done by a mechanic? |
