Check out Mazda/Nissan Heaven. I got an a-arm from them a couple years ago for $50.

There are a few down on 180 near Loop 12 too that would be a lot closer to you.

Also, call Gary at http://www.trackdogracing.com to see if he has any on a parts car.

I'll give you an upper, but are you sure it is bad? The long bolt will usually bend before the a-arm gives way.

thanks for all the offers. i have everything now. ended up with an order from tire rack (bilstiens) and mazda south to finish the shopping list.

thanks again for the offer mad merv, but when i was over at one of the yards getting the lower and they had a stack of the uppers so i grabbed on there.

the upper bolt was bent, had to sawzall off and then heat to remove.. ugh.

I knew you would need to. That bolt always goes first. I guess I'll take this a-arm and bolt back to the barn...................

thanks again
