1991 G20 lower control arm
 
I have a 1991 G20 van and am looking for a RH lower control arm. Anybody had any luck finding one? Thanks in advance for any help

I don't believe they are available now for several years, you can purchase uppers but not lowers. You will have to get a used one from a junkyard or try Car-Part.com, an online boneyard.

Can your old on be repaired?

No it's wollered out where the ball joint was

New metal can be welded in there to make a new mounting area?

I have one I can sell to you. Lower passenger side, correct?

Is that the best route for my situation with the upper control arm? One of the bolts for the pivot shaft and camber shims sheared off. I got it in the air and went to remove bracket but bracket is Riveted at bottom. Trying to decide if the next step is to weld a new post on there or to cut rivets and keep tearing bracket off?

I would not trust welding a post on there. I would be afraid that it would break off. Can you get behind the bracket, if so I would rather drill through it and put a longer bolt with a nut on the back.

Yeah i could possibly drill out old bolt and drill hole through frame and bracket. Im kinda blown away the only way to remove old bolt is to cut bracket off. But drilling through is also a good thought. I didn’t trust the welding either. and with this one breaking i’d like to replace them all to be honest. I’ve never dealt with those large rivets before. Once drilled out i guess i can replace them with bolts?
