One step forward, two steps back....

I am working on the front pass side modifying the factory control arms for 22's and the upper a-arm hit sthe header before it lays out. Anyone else run into this? Does it happen on stock exhaust manifold? Will 3/4 ton arms clear it?

here is a pic...

WITH STOCK EXH. MANIFOLDS YOU MIGHT GAIN AN INCH AT THE MOST.WITH THE 3/4 TON STUFF I BELIVE THAT THE WILL NOT WORK

the ones ive done with stock manifolds clear by a mile... you can get some tubular arms and they will clear your headers...

So you are saying the 3/4 ton tubulars will clear?

i dont think the 3/4 ton arms will clear at all.. i think cris is talking about doing it with 1500 arms.

measure your balljoint degree and jig you up a set of arms. or have someone make you set.

I would love to have a set made, but 700 bucks is a little out of my price range right now. Where can I find 1/2 tubulars at?

why not just buy a tubular upper? i got them for $300 or hit up avs.

yea aftermarket tubular arms.... arent the 3/4 ton cast arms?

How much for a whole set. By the way, big props on the blue 4 door hoe you guyz did. That bitch is bad.
