One reason why they are more, than the fronts is(or shall I say "could be") in the shear numbers of parts needed(worldwide). When people wreck there cars the control arms are designed to snap off(at least the alloy ones are). More people crash or wreck the front of the cars than the rear end. Also the front right takes its toll/beating with everyday pot holes and curbing. So more front end parts will be needed for the various OE and OEM part sources vs the rears. More parts sales usually means a lower price per unit.
