Rear Lower Control Arm LCA Replacement
I'm in the market for new/used lca's after my strut bolt seized and I snapped the stud off. My budget is very limited since I was not planning on this happening, so my choices are limited to the cheaper of the aftermarket lca's.

Megan I know are junk, Omni i've heard decent comments about, but still not sure. Wicked Tuning I've heard nothing at all about. Any recomendations?

Re: Rear Lower Control Arm LCA Replacement (rukawa1one)
only reason for an lca is weight right
omni 2lbs less than stock (AWESOME R&D STEVE )
wicked racing not much weight lose, same thing as omni.. all looks
megan racing(pretty light, far less than omni/stock.. pretty decent)
FUNCTION 7 (less than a ******* lb each... under $140) WINNAR

I have sage racing rear lower control arms on my eg hatch. They been doing its job....adding bling to my undercarriage. I bought them from Ebay. Seller says they been in the business for 10 years I believe and I haven't had any problems with my lca's.

Re: Rear Lower Control Arm LCA Replacement (menkio)
im not doing it for weight. im doing it because i need to put on my new struts and they are seized on the lca. and stock cost way too much. all the lca at the junkyard wouldnt come off either. so im getting cheap aftermarket replacements. wtf is function 7? i couldnt even google it. im prolly going to go with omni.

I've got some SPC's sitting on my dresser waiting for more suspension components to arrive, so I don't even know how those will work out. Bought from a local dependable shop but I've never heard from anyone rolling on SPC RLCA's or how they worked out.

Why not just press out the old bushing and install a new one in its place?
Seems to be the cheapest option yet at around $10-20 for the bushing + labor (if you can't do it).

i can do it the labor but i dont have the time. i only have a couple hours at the garage to do the work each week.
i went ahead and ordered a set of omni's for 115 shipped. hopefully i can get this eg lowered in the back now.

I got SPC's on and I hate them, they look nice and all but threw off my toe. Now I have to buy their toe kit just to get it zero'ed. And the fitment sucks.
