i am trying to get my suspension done on a bugdget and i see that Blue oval has control arms for $145. uppers and lowers. They have greaseable bushings and i want to know if anyone has them or knows how they perform? any opinions?
These are poly on both ends??
If so, for daily driving, that is really hard on your torque boxes and could tear them. I'de recommend getting some torque box reinforcements.
If you like to auto-x, i'de recommend getting control arms with a spherical bearing on the axle end, won't bind the bushings. Pro3i makes a nice piece, a knock off of the maximum motorsports version.
i put the Blue Oval Industries upper and lower control arms on just 2 weeks ago. Cured my wheel hop, which is what i bough them for. really stiffens up the rear end, better cornering too. i get a little driveline noise/vibration at low rpms, but i can live with it. worth the price. installation took me about 7 hours. impact wrench wouldn't take off some of the bolts on the old arms, broke 1 sears socket. also, instructions said to do just 1 side at a time, but if you do that the arms won't line up, you have to take both sides loose to line everything up. get some help, takes alot of muscle.
