They should work fine, however I would steer away from them. They are very, very hard on the chassis, frame, tq boxes, etc. The newer control arms are much much better.

If you do decide to put them in, weld the brackets in, do not just bolt them and be sure to grease them weekly to keep them from binding up in the solid bushing. Weld the TQ boxes up, install re-enforcement plates as well, you'll need them.

i have a set on my car now. they will fit just fine. i have daily driven my car with them for over a year now and the only complaint i have is that there is an increase in noise since i can hear/feel more driveline vibration. (i also put a set of solid bushing UCA in as well though, so im sure that had any additional affect on it as well)
