Product Information

A pair of adjustable front lower control arms that swap the factory arms and their rubber bushings for spherical bearings and rod ends, so the arm no longer flexes or binds as the suspension moves. Camber and track width are set with a double adjuster that locks with clamps instead of jam nuts, and stainless steel spacers let a lowered car bring its roll center back toward stock while keeping the ball joint at the right angle. The arms are set to the length of the factory arm at install, and a professional alignment is needed afterward.

Documents: Installation Instructions (PDF)

How many roll center spacers should I use?

  • With no spacers above the bearing the arm keeps the factory roll center, which suits a car at stock ride height. Spacers moved above the bearing add roll center correction for lowered cars, up to a maximum of 1/2 in.

Is anything needed after installation?

  • Yes. The car needs a professional alignment, and on a lowered car the suspension should be swept from full droop to full bump and lock to lock to check that the bearing stays within its articulation. Torque should be rechecked after the first 100 and 500 miles or the first two track sessions.
