They look nice, but I never heard of the brand name, and information is kind of sparse.

Are they worth a closer look ?

While I don't know how well the screw-in balljoints will work, I've been told by a circle-track guy that they work fine for later model spindles. That's hearsay, though, and not from a Chevelle owner.

Looking at the way they have the tape-measures across the arms, the dimensions look good for a tall-spindle swap. I wish I'd gone with a 9" length on my own arms, then I would need less shims to get the alignment right for my frame.

I plan to make some shorter ones this summer.

Ah Chad,

If I only had your gift for fabrication, I'd make all kinds of stuff. graemlins/thumbsup.gif

he says AVCO in his ad, but I'm sure he meant AFCO check out their site by doing a search on the web, they make Circle track racing stuff

Hey Guys,

I ordered a set of these from Southwest Speed, a local dirt-track racing supplier, for $85 for the pair, which included shipping. I don't know who manufactured them but they look identical. You can get them with different lengths. My intentions was to cut the screw-in ball joint "pipe" off and weld a 1/4" ball joint plate in it's place. I believe it would have worked great except you have to trim the upper control arm mounting bracket in order for the control arm to point in a downward position. Since I had already sandblasted, POR-15ed, wetsanded, and painted the frame, I WAS NOT going to take a torch and grinder to it. I hope this info helps but I feel $100 is too much to pay unless you like silver paint. Also, I think you have to ream the spindle hole in order for the Chrysler ball joint to fit. A quick trip to the parts store with a tall spindle in hand should ease your mind.

Cheers & Beers!
