I want to get a set of control arms, but I have never bought a set before, and dont know what to get. I dont need any adjustability, and dont want to break the bank but at the same time dont want to buy anything that isnt any better, or is junk. I was looking at X2C Motorsports, and UPR the X2C are really resonable, but are on back order. Does anyone have any experience with these, or any advice on others? Thanks

I use the Steeda stuff & like it very much. Lighter than stock, stronger & helps plant the tires.

i got mine from Factory Five Racing about 3 years ago. they we're running a deal at the time, both uppers and lowers for $200. i think they're like $250 now for both. nice pieces for a decent price.

I'm using upr double adjust uppers...nice stuff! If you buy uppers, be sure to get a double adjust set and swap out the houseing bushings for sphericle types. Its the only way to go when it comes to eliminating bind
Lowers are pretty basic...those that change the instant center help with off the line bite and braking dive. I'm using lakewoods traction/action lca's and have 0 complaints
I had x2c style uppers uppers with poly busings for a while, they didn't fall off...thats about the only good thing I can say about them
