![]() Are MAC's rear control arms as good as Steeda's? I am looking at buying them but I want to make sure they are worth the price before I pay. My local distributor has the set of black upper and lower control arms for $198. The only difference I know of is that Steeda's are adjustable and MAC's aren't. Let me know if I am making a mistake.
How much should my ET go down with a good set of control arms? Would a 2.5" MAC hi flo h-pipe with cats be worth $200 used? My friend wants to sell his and he thinks that is a fair price. |

![]() $200 sounds like a fair price based on what I've seen those go for retail(about $379). Personally I'd go with and offroad H but I don't have to worry about emissions where I live.
As far as control arms go you pretty much get what you pay for. First off if your looking to do alot of track(drag) racing and like to adjust your suspension then your going to want the adjustable uppers. If your just looking to tighten up the suspension for overall driving then just go with a set of SVO uppers (stock control arms boxed in) and the lower of your choice. The SVO's are cheaper then most and do the same job as all the other brands but lack adjustability. Personally I'm buying a set of UPR adjustable upper because I like to tune my suspension alot. Mainly to change pinion angle. ------------------ 00 GT, MAC Offroad H, Pullies, 4.10’s, Flows, UPR shifter, subframes, LCA’s, air filter, Weld Pro Stars, Nitto DR’s 13.19@103.86 (1.82 60ft) 244.6 RWHP M/M 100 88 LX coupe X-FHP, 12pt Cage, UPR K-member, 31 spline rear, full spool… |

![]() Thanx for the advice. My main goal out of the control arms is more traction. I do not visit the track so I feel that I will not need the adjustable uppers for now.
