upper Control arms

[Metalcop]

The Steeda's are far and away the best deal, if you plan on doing any kind of road racing or autocrossing. I have the Ford Racing ones, that I had boxed in and 'performance coated' (read: expensive chassis paint, lol) I only went with them, because they were a package deal. If I were to buy a set outright, it would be the Steeda's.
If you plan on doing any drag racing, then by all means, go with the stiffest set of adjustable arms you can get. They are all pretty good, stick with a tubular arm, with the stiffest polyurethan you can get.

i got a car to go 1.31 60' on some steeda solid uppers and some mega bite jr's this was an 03 cobra with a C4 solid rear GT front springs drag springs out back with lakewood 90/10's and 50/50's

you dont need all that adjustable bs to make it hook

I'd say anything is better than stock, as long as they have good bushings go for it. How often does anyone really adjust their control arms? I had thought about getting adjustables, but figured i would never adjust them and the thought never crossed my mind. Glad i just got the non-adjustables. But if your a road racer then go for it

Which ever are cheapest. Uppers don't do jack. My tuners notch runs 9.30's at almost 160MPH on 18" wheels all the way around with STOCK uppers!!

Im not a fan of the gms lowers or uppers, the bushings wear out fast.
Here is a link to my lowers after 50 passes. Junk.

ditch the uppers and go with a PHB and torque arm

isn't that for a car that will be a for the twisties ?

I'd still rock it as a street set up, Docg has that set up and it looks like it would be awesome.

all the 4th gen f-bodies came with that setup from the factory. my 99 Z28 had it and I loved it. kinda pricey, but it does what the upper c. arms are supposed to do but in a way they never could.

I was just thinking when I read the thread title to just ditch the uppers and do the pan hard bar.

That is the setup on mine. The ride quality is pretty rough, but the whole suspension is setup for the twisties, so I'm sure it all plays into the rough ride.

The cornering on the other hand....down ride

i have that setup as well, and MM says they have plenty of customers using the torque arm for drag racing
