Thanks for the advice on the control arms. Suppliers tell me that the entire arm with bushings is sold as a unit. Anyone tried replacing bushings only? I haven't removed the arm yet but assume it must be adjustable in order to align the wheel camber, comments?

Any Journey owners experience rear upper control arm bushing wear? My recent checkup at local tire shop indicated warn bushings, they said caused wear on inside face of rear tires that is noticeable. Any thoughts on using dodge replacement parts or jobbers. Can I replace the bushings or do I have to replace the complete arm? Is it adjustable or fixed length? How difficult for DIY?

I too have problems with Journey power steering hoses blowing out in cold weather. 2012 Journey Crew. First the cooler hose, 5154457AD leaked, then another hose leaked and is on backorder to May or June. Has anyone had any success in replacing the hoses with different or heavier hoses. The local dealer has a fix for $175.00 and will flush the existing fluid and replace with synthetic oil but I don't see why I should cover the cost when there is obviously a flaw in the system which Chrysler should fix, not the dealer.
