New front lower control arms (1LE / B4C)

Hello all,
I tried to order the FRONT 1LE lower control arms from Dal Slabaugh, but he tells me the following has been discontinued by GM and is not stocked anywhere:
>Hey Dal, can you please order:
>12505472
>and
>12505473

I searched this forum and the above part numbers seem to be what the FRONT 1LE lower control arms are - does anyone have an updated part number for a 92 Camaro B4C / 1LE car ?

(GMPartsDirect refers to the above part numbers as the heavy duty suspension) I searched here and saw things for QLC and QLE? but I am not sure which lower control arms will work with my 92 1LE car (with the bigger 1LE brakes of course)

Any advice ?

Are you talking about the lower control arms or the lower control arm bushings? I wouldnt think there would be any difference in the actual lower control arms. The standard camaro control arm and 1LE control arm should be the same with the exception of the bushings.

As I recall, the bushings are the only real difference. Their durometer is, I think, 50K whereas the normal bushings are rated at 11K. In the old GM ZZ4 conversion (350HO) parts list, the "heavy duty rear control arms" are listed as part #10164151.

Ahh, I see, I am referring to the front lower control arms themselves (not the bushings)

I figured I'd just buy new ones with the balljoint and it would save on car downtime...

Are the steering stops obvious ?? I mean, I figure I'll just order a set, and move whatever steering stops might not be in the right spot ?

What does QLC or QLE mean ?
