Are these Control Arms cheap?

[nickm347]

They are from blueovalindustries.com
here is the description:
1979-2003 (except 2001-03 Cobras) Upper & Lower Control Arms - Pair w/ Polyurethane Bushings and grease fittings, Mounting bolts and instructions - Black
$155.00

it seems like a great deal, but is it worth it? or should i spend the extra money on some good stuff like steeda?

I was looking at those as well. I'd buy them if I had the xtra cash!

They should be fine. Check out these control arms.

They don't need to be greased.

you get what you pay for in my opinion? it looks as if they just did a really nice job boxing in the upper's tho? anything is better then stock! i did steeda adjustible uppers and steeda non adjustable lower's do the lowers first then drive the car with stock upper's! you wouldnt beleive the diffrence
then do the upper's! peace

What is the difference you felt? I'm looking to eventually go with MM's PHB and possibly their torque arm. Obviously I could do LCAs in advance, so maybe I should plan on that in a month or so.

thanks for the input
i also have the "you get what you pay for" attitude, so i think im gonna go with some steed U/L control arms, they are a little more, but seem to be good, plus i like steeda
also if you looking into getting the MAC, like i was, i heard the bushing for the UCA to the top of the differental is not included, and to get it, you would have to buy a complete set of bushings, and im almost 99% positive Steeda includes that busing....so for an extra 60 bucks im gonna go for it, plus the name

There's nothing wrong with that set.

I put a set of those in my 95 GT and they tightened up the car pretty nice.Before with the stockers and 95000 miles on them I could feel the rear body of the car swaying back and forth around turns.When I put these in along with steeda sport springs and new shocks and struts the cars is on rails.They are a little squeeky and now I can hear the body flex a lot more(i still need subframe conn.) not sure how often they need to be greased.I got mine from BBK but they look just like the same parts.
