Was tooling along about 65mph when the steering wheel suddenly jerked and pulled violently left and then right -- of course the car, '88 SPG, went along for the ride. Went to edge of losing control, but managed to slow her down and get it on the shoulder. I thought I'd lost a ball-joint, but further investigation revealed that the metal had fatigued and separated where the rear arm meets the swivel point (easily visible). This is an Arizona car without a spec of rust on it. Anybody had this happen to them??
How tough is this job -- replacing lower A-arm? What should an Indie charge for replacing this?
