Is your quote fair?

A quote between $464 and $1,112 is inside the band where half of all Chevrolet Silverado 1500 control arm replacements landed. Below it is not automatically a bargain (one lower arm on an accessible layout); above it is not automatically gouging (both sides, upper and lower arms, aluminum OEM arms, alignment included) — but both ends deserve a question.

What moves the price

One arm or a pair — bushings wear in pairs; doing both sides avoids a second alignment.
Integral ball joint — arms with the joint built in cost more but replace two wear items at once.
Alignment — required after arm replacement — expect it on the invoice.
