V1 Suspensia lower control arms from Rock Auto for LNF

[AMCAMX1969]

Ordered lower control arms from Rock Auto

Part #'s

X07CJ0507
X07CJ0511

These appear to be the correct arms, ball joint stud measures 20 mm which from what I gather from reading on here will work

Just want to get a second opinion

I would measure them when they come in but if they are 20.5mm then you should be good to go.

Already have them, they are just over 20mm (0.79 inch using a micrometer)

I returned my 20mm ball joints because I didn't think they fit the hole in the knuckles tight enough. Yours may work, but proceed carefully.

A little more digging shows the X07CJ0507 & X07CJ0511 also working with the 2007 SS with FE3 & FE5. Either they are using an in between size that sort of works for both or it's just a bad listing. Again, make sure you get a tight fit in the knuckle.

Pulled apart my LNF donor last weekend and the ball joint studs are too loose in the knuckles, have not had any luck finding replacements. Ball joints do feel good and tight in the donor control arms so I may end up just replacing the bushings and using the donor control arms.
