Default control arm question

Is it just me, or are the lower control arms on our cars the same as the chevelle's?

I was just thinking there could be a less expensive source for tubular lower control arms if so.

We do share front end parts with the Corvair and the chevy biscayne. I don't know about A arms but Coleman racing has tubular A arms at very reasonable prices.

Yeah, I was looking at Coleman. I didn't see any lower a-arms though; just what looked like half of an arm.
