The 97 strut is specific to the 97 PA only.
How many bushings are on this control arm? 2?
I found this listing for front only one showing, not sure if this is it or not?
Parts Bin - Auto Parts and Accessories Catalog - 1997 Buick Park Avenue Control Arm Bushing
Will have to drop into GM to be certain what is going on.
Lets hope I dont need 2 new control arms!

i guess you cant apply logic. a strut has been the same forever and that type of control arm was used way before and way after your car. im not sure why they would make a bunch of different bushings.

UpDate: Gm provides no serviceable bushings what so ever so buy new control arms at $700...NOT happening.
The link posted previously showing raybestos services grades looks to be accurate. Hard to find their chassis parts here, have local supplier working on them and their part # somehow crosses over to Movotech bushing, however that may only apply to the movotech control arms. What a bear of a time this is. Will post further once I have bushings in hand and if they look right for the PK Ave.

97 Pk Ave LCA Bushing Front available?
HEllo!
I had no alternative : A friend of mine that works in Autozone helped me .We found Pontiac Grand Prix 97 bushings ( little less diameter) and another friend fabricated (lathe)a metal insert to fill the gap. It works perfectly . Total cost for both bushings and
inserts aprox $80.00
Now I want to be very sure which is the rear bushing of the front control arm .
Any help? with the id number and where available?
Thank you!
