RockAuto is a good source for parts. If you go with them, make sure to find their discount code in their vendor thread on here.

GMpartsdirect is another place people have used here.

I used all Moog parts when I redid mine a couple of years ago. Similar to others, Moog has several different lines, so I only used the top of the line stuff. So far, it's all holding up great and still rides like a new truck.

There are kits available on eBay cheap, but they're no good. Get quality OEM or Moog parts for the front ends on these things.

Stay away from the kits. I prefer GM OE or OE suppliers, like Timken for the hubs.

Front Hubs - Timken - SP500301 (4x4)

Here's my list of Upper and Lower Control Arms for my truck, don't know which 900 you have, last updated about a month ago:

@lee.solorzano I used the top of the line Moog stuff, it can all be found on Amazon. If you are unsure on if you are getting the right part go to their website to make sure you are buying the premium line and not the economy line.

Amazon sucks ASS at shipping the lower control arms, the box came destroyed but luckily the lower control arm is a heavy duty part and wasn't damaged.

I rebuilt mine last weekend..

I used MOOG (CK level parts with problem solver components).

Replaced:
  • Upper and lower control arms (do yourself a favor, purchase new bolts from GM that mount the arms to the frame. This was a life saver!)
  • Inner and outer tie rods
  • Sway bar links and bar bushings
  • Rear upper control arms
  • Rear lower control arms
  • Rear panhard bar
Bought the majority on Amazon, and the control arms at my local Advance auto for ease of warranty if anything should happen.
