ok so we got spindles now.. but after ripping into everything i want to change out balljoints, bushings, ect, worn to crap.. and spendy!!!

has anyone ever flipped the upper control arms?

any update on tube arms from anyone??

ok cant flip the uppers

and talked to eric at kustomwerks and no arms anytime soon, not even a prototype.. how can i get a hold of some arms with out jsut building them myself? what about lowers? thanks

ha! youll have to make your own if you want them anytime soon.

what size tire are you wanting this to lay on?

on stock arms and drop spindles, you should lay a 18.

any bigger youll need to clearance the frame for the LCA, and most likely re-angle the upper ball joints. could even flip the lower balljoints on top of the control arm so you wont have to clearance the frame as much.

yeah i know, we have a machine/race shop that i am working with and the owner really wants to help me out ans make some decent uppers.. we have the stock lca notched. this is jsut a frame right now.. i jumped in to take over after the front was cut and bracketed so i dont know where origional is but the work was done well. we have 20's now and are looking to do 22's. i know a lot of body trimming but anything is possible. saw the one guy on here with 22's but he's got byc up+lowers... looks like the stock upper balljoints will bind very quickly..

I will be building cnc manufactured arms soon. hit me up if you're interested.

dude.. post some details... interested depending on how far out you are and ect.. wahts your design?

if you are on a budget, step the lower arms 2 inches, then make some upper arm mounts that move the upper arm up an inch or two and out towards the tire an inch or so. A straight edge and digital level will help. I have covered moving uppers several times before in posts here. Oh yeah, I have found it is next to impossible to lay zus out without spindles. stepped arms, reangled ball joints, and relocated uppers will all get you where you want to go.

for the lowers we notched them but only 1/2" deep and about 2" flat, they go up more but with the bags in where he mounted/welded the upper brackets. im starting to worry i will have to rip out what he did and start over...
moving the factory uppers up and out had passed thru my mind bt then the bj angle looked a lil steep..

ball joints are gusseted with 1/4 plate on uppers, 1/8 to 1/4 wall dom tube, depending on arm and model. My arms are fully CAD designed and tested. All plates are cnc plasma, cross shafts are cnc mill and lathe cut, uses energy suspension bushings that are readily available upon need for replacement. balljoints are factory replacements, except angle has been changed, and some models have caster adjustment. I will not be making arms to fit oddball spindles, and other wierd shit that seems to slow other people down. I am aiming for prices to be between byc and art arms, somewhere in the middle. I am still in the design and test phase, so it may take a bit to get it all organized. I don't want to sell someone a product that I am unsure if it will work or not. Also, for those of you brave enough, I will sell a weld together kit for some arms. Save you money, save me time. Although I may only do this on uppers. Sorry for the long post, but I believe it is time to let the cat out of the bag. And no, I am not trying to compete with byc, kustomwerx,cando, or any others. I am simply trying to offer another option. I work a full time job to pay bills, and cannot devote all my time to a arms. I hope this gives everyone some helpful info. IM me if you have questions, problems, issues, or whatever. Just please dont IM me to bitch about BYC
