I found a ACDELCO PRO GOLD lower arm at RockAuto with a decent price (almost the price of Mevotech Bushing) Is a decent brand?
AC Delco has been around a long time but I have no idea the quality these days.
I'd buy these before buying those other "no-name" brands for sure, you can get that junk all day long on ebay.
Just thinking for $50 each side seems less risky than buying bushings and paying a mechanic and when he has it all apart they don't fit or something.
PS- Rockauto has always treated me right and shipping was fast and everything I've ordered so far fit first time so I like them- BUT-I can't say the same for the local auto part stores since they screw me over many times with junk that doesn't fit and I have to do the job twice.

Not me... I ordered 2 LCA but they were different when the order was delivered. Fortunately, the wrong LCA was defective, so I returned it and made a new order.

Dang sorry to hear about that.
Maybe I just got lucky so far but that's good to know.

Looks good to me.
I understand ... for me it is complicated to know which brands actually provide. It seems to me that Mevotech/Moog/555 are good brands and good substitutes for OE parts. And I need to buy it, send it to a friend in San Diego, so he can send it here. Although the Brazilian auto parts industry is very good, it has a lot of Chinese garbage.

If prices for LCA with ball join and w/out ball join are about the same then I would recommend to buy LCA with ball joint.
