Default Suspension rebuild

hey I was wondering about the upper control arm bushings. I got the one out, but the other had a metal piece welded to the control arm and it wouldn't press out. Is this stock? I suppose I could post a pic later. Also I took the tie rods off so the inners are still connected. Is there anyway to tell which one is left and which is right? It is a 2wd D350. Also does anyone know where to get an upper control arm if I have to replace. I found some Mopar ones that were about $150 a piece and was wanting something cheaper.

The bushing was most likely replace. I've had to weld in a couple when I worked at the dealer. Never welded a metal peice to it though. just cut the weld and knock it out. will have to weld the new one in to most likely as well.

For the tie rod ends do the have the factory part number stamped on them? if so odd #'s are the left side and even #'s are the right side. That going for all chrysler part numbers left/right
