I see in the new MM&FF Pro 5.0 is making control arms now. They are aluminum with aluminum bushings with a rubber insert or something, I forgot. They must be new. They actually look alot like Metcos. Is anybody running them? How are they on the street?

They seem to be exactly the same as the Metco's...without the IC bracket - and $150 cheaper..........

I LOVE my Metco lowers. You can't get much more solid than a billet aluminum arm. Say what you want about poly bushings....but with the aluminum spacers Metco uses, I have had no binding issues or noises, at all. The ride quality definitely increased, too. Well worth the $399.

Their website says they weigh 20 pounds, has anybody weighed the stock control arms? I have had them in my hands before but dont know an exact weight on them.
