Lower control arms

Lower control arms
I have a question, I pulled out my lower control arms to replace the bushings. After I got that done I went to replace my lower ball joints. It seems the last person who owned this cat 15 yrs ago welded the ball joint in place on both sides. So here is the question, Are the Goodmark control arms at rockauto.com a good quality? I was also looking a Southwest speed. I am going with the stock style and not the tubular control arm. Or is there any other ones you would recommend?

Are they just tacked in or welded all the way around? If they are just tacked, you can grind it off, install the new ball joint and tack it again. Also if the ball joint is not worn but the boots are bad, you can just replace the boots.
Another choice vs Goodmark is to find a set of used OEM replacements from one of the guys on here.
