Default Front Control Arm Bushings

Hey guys,
Chrysler has informed me that my front controll arm bushings are being ripped out. Ive had them done already in the back which was still under my warranty. However im over 60k (canada) and they are wanting to charge me 575.00 plus taxes for this. Is there a cheaper set that wouldnt rip out, i mean they cant be that good if they only come out after 67,000 kms anyhow and 575 seems a little pricey. Also there is a clunk when i hit the gas in the front end, do you guys think this is a result of these arms? or something else?

confused [:I]

They do make a LCA bushing upgrade kit for the SRT-4 but I don't know if it is the same for the PT. I think there are kits for the PT, too.

I purchased my bushings fron Prourethane and installed them myself.......that was a weekend job and then some. That's one job the shop should do for you then you will never ever need another set of control arm bushings
