If it was the uppers, just buy a torque are, You can totaly eliminate the upper control arms then.

tourqre arm really is the way to go. and then you just have to reinforce the bottom which is a lot cheaper than the uppers to do.but if not i can fix the uppers but would half to see to give estimate, but could be 150 to 400 max if fixable, other wise would have to swap out for the whole replacement deal. which gets really expensive, sucks but cannot say for sure till i see. and thanks for the recommendations guys!
