wesleyCrowbar ... lemme contemplate it.. not sure Im gonna sell just thinking about getting something newer, with a warranty, that I don't have to wrench on. So far my factory LCAs are holding up bought these for when they inevitably fail. Gimme a week and if I sell the LGT (and these don't go with it) I will give you a heads up.
Thinking of selling the car with extras and if I don't get what I want sell the car without the extras. OEM Catless Up, Cobb AP-V3-SUB-02, Factory Wheels, Alumimum LCAs, All exhaust gaskets and extra Banjo Bolts/Filters n Crush Washers.

Still have mine in the boxes. If I decide to sell my LGT I will sell em for the right price. Thanks again to OP for the alert on this deal!

Hmmm, do they make workout videos for Subies?
Those Jane Fonda workout VHS tapes still work for me!
Pics for proof please, or we cannot confirm or deny the above statement. Then if you have YOGA Pants on they can move this post to the YOGA Pants forum.

Thanks for this write up. It helped me complete this task today. Took me quite a while because of difficulty getting it back together but I can tell, this winter 30 below will be smoother starts without that crazy grinding noise. No pictures because OP had that covered.

I received my set at work today, will snap some pics once I get home. So far so good, still cant believe it.... $26 and some change (including shipping) for these items. The universe was smiling on me that day!

SO according ti pictures posted these LCAs come with new bushings and ball joint? What kind of bushings are those? They don't look like OEM, no open cut sections in them as on stock ones?
Just thinking that if bushings and ball joints are decent then these may be worth it even at regular price.
Correct that is why this was such a great deal, mine should be here today. I saw the tearing of mine when I did my brakes which is why I bought a set. Will post pics when I can take some.
I am bummed they were able to catch the error and only a few people were able to take advantage.

One question everyone with the hold email did yo ever get an email stating the order has been shipped? I did get that email and mine in in Idaho now on their way to MT. So far I haven't gotten the dreaded email! Hopefully at least a few of us were able to score!
-
Crossing my fingers and knocking on wood, mine were already shipped, so far no effin a-hole "the system was wrong" BS E-mail, we should have taken screen shots of their site. They very well could recall the shipment before it arrives.
Checked shipment status and it is still in transit. For those that still want them they have a price match guarantee, if that helps any....
-
I received a "your order has been shipped" confirmation email. my total price $26.53. Scheduled for 9/21.
Thanks to OP for letting everyone in on this phenomenal deal! I/we need to save money where ever possible! Gonna post a pic when they arrive...wooo hooo!

This must be a pricing error - the same pn is on a couple of sites for $150 - http://www.jegs.com/i/Mevotech/662/CMS80181/10002/-1
Just in case it is, I put in an order, cant really go wrong for 4 bucks - if the workmanship looks shoddy I will toss them.
Sold out/Sale ended. Let us know!Merc6 I still show the pass side available (11) on CARID.com
and 15 of the driver side

I have received an estimated ship date notification, email. I am not in need of these yet but since I have seen many threads of the LCA bushing going, I did this for future use... hell don't toss em if they aren't any good recycle the aluminum and get some of the money back.
I recycled a stack of my old license plates and got way more than I thought!

Really? You want your suspension to collapse on a bumpy road?
Bettin' these are high-end, exotic materials like on Masers, too?
But in for pics of crashed cars!!!

Yup and all the times the airlines posted low/erroneous prices all of those flights crashed too!

How would an entire control arm and ball joint cost only $3.20? That wouldn't even come close to covering the raw materials to make the parts.
I know right???? Hopefully it is there mistake on pricing and we get to benefit, I do have my doubts, but it does have this in the description:

I just ordered a set from CARID.COM for $26.53 including shipping.. it states lower control arm and ball joint assembly so it should be the entire thing but at only $4.00 for each Item I am not exactly convinced of what I will receive... I will also Post results, figured the 26 bucks was worth the risk at this point.
