A decent shop with aligment included may not be as expensive as the stealer!
Why am I not surprised! The stealership was asking $75 for a bloody hubcap! Not a tire, or a steel rim....a HUBCAP! I was happy to oblige with as well! LOL! Thanks again guys for clueing me on what a control arm is!

I did notice my front suspension makes somewhat of a knocking sound whenever I go over a small bump...is this normal or does this mean that my bushings are starting to go as well?
