Can you tell us what spindles work with the UCA's? Will the tall ATS spindles work with these, or do you need the stock hight spindles?

Also, how much + caster are the uppers designed for?

Any spindle that would fit a stock control arm will work, we sell the ATS parts also and both the stock height and tall spindle will work. the 2" drop spindles that are on the market are questionable due to the extreme height of them plus if you want a wide front rim there can be contact issues with the rim and tie rod end.

the arms are built with a static 4 deg of camber built in so there is no problem acheiving up to 6 or 7 deg if you want to.

Although Derrick, pardon me, "McLovin", asked about caster and the reply refers to camber, I'd have to guess that the figures are for caster. Unless, of course, you want the front of your Chevelle to look like the back end of a "Baja Bug".

The "A" body front arms aren't on the website yet. As far as those illustrated (Camaro, Nova, etc.), they look good, as well they should, considering the price (Lowers $599 pair/ Uppers $499 pair). Compared to other tubular arms, they are not the most expensive out there, but by no means the cheapest, either.

Pardon me if I missed something, but I see no mention of weight. Argueably one of the key motivators for this upgrade, at least for those focused on straight line performance.

Woops !! yea Caster too much junk in the brain!!
A body parts are now on the site.
Ready to ship NOW!

pricing is
lowers are 579.00
uppers are 529.00

they are not the cheapest out there, but the quality is second to no one. do you want the cheapest???
the arms are not any lighter than stock but about 2.5 times stronger due to material and construction. if your worried about weight we could also make them with chromoly and use out billet aluminum cross shafts???
stainless steel off set cross shafts are standard
Top of the line Moog problem solver ball joints
gloss black powder coat
