I've been waiting for somebody to make those lowers for a very, very long time. Thanks for the link.

I'd like to see some better pics from them of the gusseting on the lowers for the coil-over mount, but they look like nice pieces. Too bad these aren't TSM-legal.

Chris and I have posted about his PA Racing control arms for about a month now.

John,

How much does Chris's Strange brake setup weigh vs. the stock GM pieces? What's involved in the changeover?

 

[John Wilde]

From the top of my head 65lbs of savings sounds like the number Chris and I were talking about. This is for the brakes and control arms. Just the brakes and hub were about 14lbs a side lighter.

The change over was was pretty painless.
You can get the ball joints with stock gm style or mopar.
If you get mopar there is a little extra work.
