Upper control arms to lay out on 24's

I bought new balljoints to fit my spindles. I had to drill the arm a little to get that balljoint to fit.

---------------------------------------------Originally posted by lowrod63I just got 2500 tubular uppers, I think they are the same. what balljoins did you used and did you have to modified the spindles?      --------------------------------------------- The 2500/ 3500 uppers are solid steel not tubular, FYI. I have heated & bent a pair in a hydraulic press to correct ball joint angle. Cheap, effective & looks great.

i know djm upper arms will not work with bell tech spindles on 99 and up chevy. had to  chopem up to get them to work.  then made some from scratch later on. that was back in 02 on my 99. i need to make some for my 06 this site has a lot of info and pics on body dropping truck, but its down right now.    ifcustom.com

I think each chevy 88-98 is a little different when it comes to needing a Z or not. Ive had 2 and niether needed a z to lay flat. But i dont doubt that some will need it. As for ball joints make sure you buy the Ball joints that have the right amount of travel. I switched mine once and layed it out and bent my old DJM arms because the joints didnt have the enough travel. I only use MOOG problem solver ball joints in my Chevys. They have a tremendous amount of travel, probably more then spherical joints.
