Installed the Upper/Lower Gratanelli control arms

Haggis13 · March 12th, 2007, 05:26 PM

Took about 3.5 hours doing it by myself. There's still snow on the ground around here, so I haven't gotten a chance to take it out. Installed well.

i was looking into getting a set of these. let us know how they handle once the snow melts.

That's right. They work great. The rear end plants real nice. Use lots of Loctite though, the bolts come loose real quick!

thanks. what are those spacers for?

Haggis13 · June 5th, 2007, 07:29 PM

Spacers? I had washers which I used on every bolt, but that's it.

You have the newer style arms like I just bought. The spacers are a new design. The 4 bushings go in the front of the arm and the spacers go in the rear part of the arm to give it more of a solid mount. They are better than the old style.
