I just pulled the rear end from my parts car and it had these control arms and the torque boxes were a mess. Would these be good to use or would different arms be better? These are not for my car btw. but it's still going a on a high HP car.
 
I will be putting these on my car in the mear future....but I will also be welding my tq boxes with reinforcements upper as well as lower. Hopefully everything will hold togetehr good, as I know these control arms have been known to blow out tires as well.

SSM lca's are a drag lca. they'll will do more damage on a auto-x or d/d stang due to the side loading and body roll. if you're serious about cornering you'll want to go with lca's that incorporate a spherical bushing. these are great for drag and mild street duty though.
