Control arm questions
I am looking into buying a '98 Montero Sport that drives like a dream, for the most part. I was able to take the truck to a mechanic today (before I buy), but my usual guy was too busy for a last minute appointment. I had to go to a dealership..ugh.
The shop at the dealership claims that the L/H upper and lower, and the R/H upper a lower control arms need to be replaced. There is a tiny bit of play in the steering, but nothing dramatic. I chalked it up to the age and model. How can I tell if the mechanic is being honest?

control arms dont wear out.
find out if you're talking about the correct part. Ball joints? tie rods? idler arm?
and actually, in reality, montero sports almost NEVER, EVER need front end work. EVER.
