bent lower suspension arm

my 02 2500,4wd,6spd,has a bent lower suspension arm, this was the term in the haynes 94-01 manual,I don't know if there is another word for it.I got this truck used, and did not notice it,does not affect steering,only a slight wobble around 70mph.I can't seem to locate a replacement,although I have not contacted a dealer yet for obvious reasons.anyone know of a replacement,or a aftermarket part?

try asking around in the classifieds... perhaps someone who's lifted their rig will have an extra laying around

I doubt Skyjacker would have the stock length one.

I'd say contact any of us many owners who've put a lift kit on,
some of us might have the originals lying around.

Use PM or Email though, as we don't like "For Sale" or "Wanted" in the forums.

Oh, and to prevent it from happening again, never put a jack under the arms, always jack from the frame or axle.

that's what must have happened,some genius jacked it up there and it gave way,I did not see when I got the truck,or,I had new tires days later, guess it's too late to whine.I want a straight one though,it bugs me.

DT pro fab makes a stock length replacement that is much better built then the facotry peice, and at a decent price.
