What is the best upper and lower control arms?

Steeda

Can't go wrong with Maximum Motorsports. I've got their standard LCA's with a spherical bearing on the chassis side and Steeda's heavy duty uppers.

I wouldn't do 4.10's without 'em.

that's a good combination.

i'm going with HPM megabyte junior adjustable LCA's with FRPP heavy duty UCA's.

$239 for lowers and $99 for uppers.. cheap

I recently installed a set of Pro3i upper RCA's and Pro3i Street lowers RCA's and I'm very happy with them. They were not overpriced, the installation was a breeze, I don't have any clearence problems with the rear sway bar, they're quiet, and the car feels much more solid.

Good luck.

Do you guys feel any difference in traction when you floor it?

For the money, I love my MAC's in the 98. The 92 needs the rest of the suspension done, since I've replaced the springs and shocks/struts, the bushings all need to be done. It's either the kit from energy, or just the front and MAC uppers/lowers. Might even try to sneek them past for the Mach.

239 dollars from any catalog. Definitely worth it...

with the control arms upper and lower you'll feel like you're driving a whole new car. Yes the traction will be much better, straighter take offs, and much more solid..

how does that plasma booster feel.. i have yet to buy it because of we already have direct coil ignition and we don't really need it. Does it remedy the sometimes bad engine start ups that 99+ mustangs have?

Anyway, i'm sure you'll be seeing high 12's soon with some DR's.. almost there myself. btw, what was your 60ft??

I just bought the Steeda 4600 series LCA's and the non-adjustable UCA's. The 4600's have a stiffer bushing for harder launching and heavier cars. (mines a convertible) I've also know people who like they're UPR's also.
I don't think you can go wrong with any of the ones that have been suggested.

There is a plasma booster for COP applications. It does nothing for our cars.

that's what i figured.

forpit2000gt · Jan 18, 2004

I looked a lot and LcaS AND ucaS. D&D, MM, Steeda, BBK, Mac. All seemed about the same for the average bolt on car and daily driver.
Not trying to hijack this thread, those that have installed spherical bushings, does the car have any more noise or vibration with normal street driving? Anything you don't like about them?

KaPPaBaLL · Jan 18, 2004

Spherical bushing help eliminate a lot more binding rather than the stock setup. As for more road noise, it's logical since the LCA/UCA's are pushing more towards the ground, keeping the tires planted. Thus, more road noise.

GinoGT · Jan 18, 2004

Well, I had all my suspension done at the same time, but the car rides pretty good, even with the shocks set on the stiffest setting. The ride is even more impressive when you realize how good it handles.

I just bought the steeda Hardcore Aluminum lowers and the hardcore steel adjustable uppers. I havent installed them yet, but they look like really nice parts. Not to mention they are steeda so I imagine they are gonna be sweet.
