How heavy are those lower control arms compared to the oem arms?  i made my extended control arms from round tube and some plate.  That 1/2" plate looks like it would be very heavy?  Have you weighed each one for a comparison?

Nice looking control arm though.  Have to love a water jet setup.

Car is coming along nicely
Cheers
Don

Here is a better pic!
I met a man with a dollar, we exchanged dollars and we still had a dollar. I met a man with an idea, we exchanged ideas and now we both have two ideas!!!

There won't be any need for added material to the lowers! They are 1/2" plate stainless with a 12.5° bend in them they will be far stronger then anything out there! Extreme overkill is all I know!  ;)

are you going to add stiffening to the lower arms?

Thanks Auto and SchulzeA! I'm really not sure if they are metal or what they are made from! If I had to guess I would assume the real ones are carbon!

Started back on my front control arms. Making some progress on the lowers still need a lot of suspension pieces to get it back on it's wheels!

Good job on those!  Are the OEM ones metal?

Your did a really nice and clean install on that fuel filler.  Thank you very much for the muffler bracket you made me, it worked out perfect!

Not a lot going on here, but forgot to give String the proper praise for sharing the muffler bracket dimensions. I didn't even question if they would work just went ahead and made them anyway lol!  ::wave
