Okay, so I need to replace the driver's side control arm. I'm about to order and then I realize that there's something funky about my car.

When I had to replace the engine mount - the listed mount didn't fit. Holes were different and the pins wouldn't align. After two wrong mounts showed up, I gave up and ordered by sight.

Seems the engine mount from a 1997 model fits this subframe. Fixed, forgotten, and moved on.


Except I just realized that I need a new driver's control arm... and these also seem to be model-year specific.

So.. if I seem to have a 1997 subframe... I should be ordering a control arm from a 1997? Does it make a difference? how do I tell which arm I need?
