my upper control arms keep squeaking and eventually breaking has anyone had and been able to fix ..

it can be "fixed"...
by injecting grease through the boot. i'm planning on doing exactly this on saturday to my squeaking control arms.
I'd rather try to get away with greasing them instead of immediately replacing them at the first sign of squeaking IMHO.
*edit* i just saw that you said they keep squeaking AND breaking? uhh thats not right. they must've been installed wrong or something.

My Istooks creak often, but lubing cures it, and I'm confident that they're strong enough.
Istook is now offering some grease boots for the knuckles that look like a good idea. That should keep them quiet.
Be prepared for increased alignment costs, though...
