Advice: Lower control arm needed
 
My Spring of discontent continues.

In order to repair some suspension damage I need a new front driver's LCA.

I called my local dealership, they need $684 for the part

I Google PN.31126758513 and the part is readily available under $100.


Also, the dealership asked me if the LCA is for a two door or four door E36.
I assumed it would be the 2-door part, they wouldn't answer if the parts differed.

If you have an insight, it sure would be appreciated.

Thanks
Roy

First I've heard of the coupe vs 4 door difference. From everything I've read they share the same suspension.

I had these in my shopping cart for a bit.

But am probably going to purchase this set here in the near future.

As always Speed, thanks for checking in.

Dealership $800
ECS/Turner $150

Just doesn't make any sense.

Yet know one is surprised. And they wonder why everyone is buying online. I don't mind someone making a profit but, know one wants to be taken to the cleaners.

The parts guy was sooo snarky on the phone.
I was just trying to make a purchase.

He read the part number off so quickly, I couldn't write it down.

$754 at stealership
$75 at Turner Motorsport

I guess he was snarky because all the phone orders are lost to the Intra-Web
