Control Arm Questions......
I did a search on here and read some info on them and seek some info on aftermarket arms.So I will ask the masses and see what I come up with so I can address the worn bushings my truck has in the top arms.

A while back(2 years ago)I purchased a set of Solid Steel Lower Control arms and have been patiently waiting for them to release their Upper Control Arms.Fast forward to today and now with 198,000 miles on my truck of daily driving the factory upper arms are showing signs of worn bushings and now have some slop to them which is noticeable on hard bumps.I have contacted Solid Steel and they have yet to have their upper set ready for public sale and I am tired of waiting and need to address this issue.

I realize that Skyjacker and DT Profab are out there available but would like to know if any other brand exists.DT ProFab does not answer their phones,nor does their closest dealer to me Haisley Machine,nor has DT answered any emails I sent to them so I will look elsewhere.Kore and Carli both have arms but neither show any for the 94-02 trucks.The truck is 2 over in the front and I would like to go to the 1/2 in longer front arms to recenter the axle.Any ideas or help is appreciated......Andy
