Thanks! Unfortunately, that did not show the nuts themselves. I will keep digging.To to GMPartsDirect.com, enter your VIN, and scroll to the suspension section. You will find exploded parts diagrams which will identify part numbers.
Thanks! The GM control arms I am looking at use the OEM ball joints with the threaded stud. The nut is a torque to yield type of nut, at least according to the service manual. No provision for a cotter pin and castle nut.I used the MOOG CK series components when I did mine and they all came with castle nuts/pins (upper/lower arms and tie rods)
Thanks! My plan is to go all GM, with the exception of the Moog alignment cams.View attachment 418748
Many of these parts will translate over to your Cadillac. ACDelco has the upper control arm/alignment parts.
If you mix and match brands you are going to lose the ride. We had a fella on here a few years ago who rebuilt his suspension with all kinds of different brands and complained and complained about how bad his truck rode. My Yukon has the basic dumb suspension and seventeen inch wheels and she rides like a Cadillac with a little weight on.
