upper/lower control arms

[manpowermustang]

Im looking into buying control arms. I ripped out the rear end in my car and mounted it on the work bench. I canned the upper and lower control arms and shocks.

My question is what to get. I dont want complete drag but am more interested in that, but still dont want the car bouncy. I do want to handle too but am not all that intereested.

I looked at HPM upper and lower and steeda too. They are all about 210.00 a set. I dont want adjustable. I see some have a spercal type bushings or something like that. I was told I can remove the quad shocks too by going to aftermarket control arms.

I guess I am looking for some advice on what to look at or a good brand. My price range is aroung 350.00 to 400.00 for the control arms.

Any advice would be great.

MM lowers with poly/spherical bushings for $250+tax+ship and HD uppers (recommended by MM) from your local ford dealer for about $60.

After lots of reading and research, this is the best "all around" setup i have found, that will not wreck your torque boxes in the corners.

It's going to be subjective, as many aftermarket designs are very similar, and will perform similar as well.

My best advice would be to buy from a reputable company and that way you're sure to get a good product, even if it's not the 'best' by someone's standards.

Ive been doing the homework and I think MM are the best too.

I side with that arguement and is the exact route i'm going as of current........

If you want to save a buck, the Pro3i's are nearly identical to MM's standard lower control arms, but cheaper.

I am going to be buying the Pro3i's this winter for my car.

Expensive, but worth it.
