Tubular upper and lower control arms

Global West's new G-plus upper and lower control arms provide straight line stability and improved corner entry due to new geometry. The control arms are shipped pre-assembled with factory replacement ball joints, billet cross shafts, Del-a-lum bushings, bump stops,  and a complete set of instructions including new alignment specifications.

Upper and lower control arms are powder coated black and the special billet cross shafts are gold zinc.

New hardware for the lower control arm to frame attaching bolts are also included.

The upper control arms simply bolt into position. The arm is structured to provide clearance for the brake lines and inner fender well. Preliminary alignment setup while installing the upper arms will be using 2 - (1/8) inch alignment shims on each bolt. The alignment shop will finish the rest.

The lower control arms are designed specifically so that the stock power steering components will not interfere with the shaft of the lower control arm. This also means any power steering used will not interfere.  The lower arm is also designed to except a standard coil spring or coil-over conversion. Sway bar attachments and steering stop pads are also incorporated into the control arm.  Stock lower ball joints are used and a bump stop is provided.  Two inch drop spindles may also be used with this application.
