lower control arms(which ones)

ols0051 · 02-26-2005, 11:31 AM

What are the best lower control arms? I was thinking of going with a lower like (south side) and then using a adjustable set of uppers. I have already put in torque box reinforcements, so now I can't seem to make up my mind as far as uppers&lowers.help.....

I am running Granatelli upper and lower control arms. I paid $160.00 for them off of ebay and I pull 1.6 60fts with an otherwise stock suspension on slicks.

I'm using UPR, both uppers and lowers.

i use x2c and 60' in the low 1.6's and even got a 1.57 on a prep'd track.

Thanks for your input. I will look into all of them and order up something.

I'm running the X2C arms on my car as well. I cut 1.70 60 foots on motor, and low 1.60's on spray, with no other suspention work other than the control arms and slicks.

Bob Cosby runs X2C arms on his ride last time I checked.
