Ecklers seems to be a premium priced vendor for many parts. I'd also check Van Steel, Vette Brakes & Products and others for prices before making a decision. Never hurts to shop around.

I build the a-arms for Ecklers. However, if you want a Moog ball joint you'll have to call us direct. In your case, you may be better off buying a new lower a-arm b/c you will loose the core for your old one.
