if you are reusing the balljoint from a steel lower control arm setup, then I think you will need the tapered sleeve or 'boss' P/N 20216fa000 - see Lower Ball Joint

if the arms come w/ ball joints you'll be fine, if not you'll need the sleeves/"cones" as mentioned above and you can re-use your existing ones (might be a good time to get new ones anyways)

do you mean ALK? the rear bushing? if so yes you can reuse the rear bushing (or ALK)

Nah, i meant roll center adjust (RCA).
It came like these:



So, do i still need the "cones" for my application?
What abt the "black bolt"? Which part is it exactly? Can i reuse that from my steel arms?
Anyhow, this is what im getting, let me know if theres any short fall or things that cant be reused from my existing car. Thanks!

looks like you need the "cones", part #'s are floating around- you can them from the dealer

the ball joints will not work w/o these, and the steel arms don't have them

the black "bolt" is where the rear bushing is attached (attached to the aluminum arm via two bolts- your arms have them
