Junk yard, eBay, classifieds, craigslist. Or you could upgrade to tubular A arms, from UMI, Spohn, or BMR.

Technically they are a control arm, but the common name is a-arm. Like krisb said, plenty of places to find one.

Yes a good place is the Sponsors right over there >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Most of them sell tubular versions but if your just looking for a stock replacement then try shooting Hawks an email. Hes very helpful and will probably pull one off of his junk cars for you.

Re: Control Arm/ A-Arm question
do you have access to a local pick'n'pull? removing them at the junkyard will be good practice, and you can get a single control arm for $15, don't forget to press a new ball joint in.
