I was wondering if they were any good and if they would make much difference in the hooking up problem in my 2000 stang.

I own a set of Upper and Lower Control arms from GMS. I have not installed them yet. Upon visual inspection they seem just fine. The welds look ok and the arms are straight and True. They should be installed in the next week or 2. I will see if my view of them changes.

This thread is a small ball of snow gently rolling down a mountain side; soon it will become an avalanche!

I predict the general consensus will be "no"

No offense, but I've seen many pictures of them bent, broken and so forth. They are crap.

I'll give a big NO vote on these too. I just changed some out on a v6 for some stockers, and they were fractured in two spots on one arm, and the other was warped where the metal bushing was, so it bounced around. You definitely get what you pay for. I recommend some Maximum Motorsports arms, especially the ones with the spherical bushings.

Remember, it costs money to go fast. When you skimp out on quality, you could be skimping out on safety.
