Pic of lower control arm please?

Looking for some pics of lower control arms, with close ups. My bumpstops are crushed so i was thinking of fabbing some new ones, think i could just make a box with a slit in it for the rubber? If anyone could take the time to measure it thatd be great too.

Re: Pic of lower control arm please?

One more thing, what should I do for a steering stop? There was one on there right? Do I need one?
