It seems the lower control arms are discontinued and nobody makes them.
Mine are messed up enough I can't install new bushings.
Let me see if I can add some pictures.
Anybody have any ideas? Thinking a machine shop is my best bet.
 
The GMT800 lower control arms fit the torsion bars and bolt right in, but that would also require going the full GMT800 brake conversion.

Curious as to what a machine shop would charge, is getting them sleeved an option or do they need to weld/ build up the opening and then re bore?

Wrecker yard is another option. Seeing as how you're out of the rust belt probably some decent condition parts kicking around down there
 
I was able to Dremel the rust off with a stone bit. Once I did that the bushings slid right in with some silicone lube.
I did not know about the GMT 800 brake conversion. Maybe in a couple of years, I am currently replacing everything on my front end.
Thanks for the reply DieselAmateur!
 
I don’t know, but would guess there are some off road aftermarket companies that would build some. They make them for most trucks to have a wazoo suspension system. Lightweight & stronger so guys can jump the trucks and such off road racing.

If no one is, find a custom fabricator that builds them for off road trucks, buggys, etc.
