tubular a arms

Post by john worfen »

Have recently modded brakes on car, and wanted to get some tubular upper A arms, saw RCC has some but there has been no response to email and the listed phone number "does not exist"...... anybody know if they are still in business... or possibly another source?

thanks, I will check them out. I read their info, they say that their sport suspension package has improved geometry.... anybody tried their setup and can comment on how good it is?

Better have them clarify that. I don't think they've changed anything with the "sport" setup, as each part is sold to be inidividually interchangeable with its OE counterpart.

Here's the RCC website... Not sure if this is a mirror or what:

I like the RCC caster adjustable lower control arms better than the fixed West Shore/Held units. I like West Shore/Held's upper shock mounts and accomodating upper control arms better than RCC's, which require cutting (and maybe welding) to the OE crossmember.

If you end up looking for lowering knuckles, call up Ross at Street Dreams and get a set of their aluminum knuckles & hubs (I got the ball rolling on that and designed the hub for them).

Contrary to what the website says, the knuckles are aluminum, with steel spindles pressed in.
