An icy parking lot laid waste to the lower control arm of my son's 81 GLT (along with the wheel and sway bar link) Of course the car was 180 miles from home. I had the control arm on hand from parting out a 240 a couple of years ago. Packed the tools/jack/warm clothes and worked in a parking lot. From the time I slipped the jack under the car until I was test driving the car 30 minutes had passed. Having done it a few times before helped in the elapsed time but I appreciate how relatively simple these cars are.
