I did a couple of general searches on the "Death Sway" and pretty much gathered that my bushings are worn. With that said, I'm doing it myself and just going to replace the rear lower control arms.

My question from you guys is the part numbers for both rear left and rear right? any recomendations also would be greatly appreactiated. Thanks in advance!

1. Do the uppers too.

2. Find a shop that can press in new bushings into your control arms. It's a lot cheaper. Check the low-rider shops.

If you're going to replace the arms yourself I would say just do the bushings. I just did mine last weekend and the hardest part was getting the arms out. The bushings were no problem at all. Used a drill, screw driver and a hack saw. Each bushing was out in less than 5 min.

Sounds good. I decided to take it to the shop and get done since I also need new shocks and struts. Suv has 182k in which I owned it since 72k and never have the suppension serviced.
