Q: Fornt Upper Control Arm Replacement Price

asked by on September 26, 2017

I was quoted $1860 by my shop to replace the front upper control arms on both sides. the estimate i am getting here is under $400. This price is more in line with replacing the bushings only, but the quote is for "front arm assembly". Does $400 seem accurate for the job I need done?

My car has 115000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
