Control Arms Boxed, Tubular, or Adjustable?

[Buick C Type]

Just looking for some feedback on what opinions are on aftermarket control arms both upper and lower. What have you used and were you happy with the results. I'm looking to buy some and am on the fence as to what will be a good choice. Not looking to spend my kids college money on a set, but want something much better than stock.

Just bought a 9" Ford rear end and would prefer to change out control arms when the rear end is replaced. Car is a 1984 Buick Regal with a Cadillac 500 swap.

Thanks for any input or suggestions.

Anything is better than stock i had hotchkins on one of my gn's back in the day but now they are so expensive cause you pay for the name they were very good but the umi would be your best bet non adjustable if your a hard core racer then go with adjustable

Get a set with greasable urethane bushings if going that route.

Rear Lower Arms

I had the Hotchkis ones and replaced them with the Curretrac ones to try on my TTA. I also did subframe conns at the same time. I seem to have better traction and can stage a few more #'s of boost. Supposedly with the ball jt on the rear end of the arm, U won't bind like U supposedly do with Poly on both ends. Makes sense I guess. Next I will think about making the same switch on my GN.
