I've just ordered a new TRW arm for the ZT, and will be doing it the hard way.
Out of interest, what is wrong with your subframe? the front one is normally very resilient to corrosion, and it is quite therapeutic to spend time refurbishing them.

rusty in the hard to get at places and I don't think I have the patience to
spend time trying to clean off these difficult spaces.
I'm wondering if I could take it somewhere for them to dip and de-paint and de-rust and then I paint. This will give me a sub frame for my other car and it will just be a change over job.
I'm happy spending time on things I think I can do a good job on and when the car goes back together I do want a good job.
I did hum and arreeee about buying the new sub frame.
I'm tempted to buy a rear for the same reason.
