Why not rebuild your current control arm?

I just came up on some 964 Turbo cup 1 wheels...17x7 front 17x9 rear et55 with the necessary adapters to make them fit on an early offset car. They need a little resto and I was going to refinish them, but if you're looking for a set I might sell them as is.

A few reasons:

1. The only rebuild kits I could find were close to $200 after shipping. That's pretty silly for a ball joint, imo.

2. The weight difference between the later and the old ones are about 200 grams a side. Not really any savings there.

3. I found a used complete assembly for $80. Picked it up this morning.

4. The availability of VW Mk 1 poly bushings for the early arms means I get that benefit later when/if I do decide to go with it - and will all still be cheaper than the rebuild kit.

Anyhoo, picked up the replacement arm this morning and will try and get it on the car this weekend.
