front control arms

[n20junkie]

easy question, who sells upper and lower front control arms, it seems that everybody has the uppers, the lowers seem to be the prob, i am pretty sure that circle track guys use them, i know that the ones for other cars are dirt cheep, if they are the circle track variaty, but i want some built more for straight line stuff, any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks

The upper are cheaper because of the supply & demand involved. They are needed, in most cases, to run the larger 12" disks. The lowers aren't.

Personally, I considered getting the tubular lowers... but the price didn't make sense versus the application. So I just boxed my stocker units with 2"x 1/8" plate steel. I added a big MOOG Problem Solver balljoint, and a set of Del-A-Lum bushings from Global West (very difficult to install, IMO). Honestly, this way is every bit as strong as anything you'll get in the aftermarket.

I am "road racing" my car and am quite content with the results. These will be plenty good for the drag strip.
