rear control arms??

mustangforever97 · January 25th, 2011, 03:59 PM

I recently hit a curb sideways

It pushed my passenger side tire in a inch and pushed it back alittle so my drivers side is sticking out a inch farther and forward alittle.Now i checked the underneath and theres no kinks that i can see other than the upper control arms are bent pretty bad.Im praying to god that a set of control arms will adjust my rear back to where it was.I seen bbk control arms 4pc for 300.000 and found a plain jane set for 140.00 what should i go with or is there any way to elimanate the uppers and just have lowers? Please respnds back this is holding me up I dont wanna drive it this way it is to sloppy and just isnt right.thats why i have them ugly rims on the back because it shattered my one wheel bent my axle broke my rotor in half.please again help me out.

The best bang for your buck is going to be a torque arm set up. It replaces your upper control arms but you need full length sub frame connectors to install one. You also should have upgraded lowers as well.

If you don't want to spend that much right now just get a decent set of uppers to replace your damaged ones.

You can get a great set of UMI uppers for alot less than the BBK ones and they are alot better IMO.

Thanks for the recommendation. We offer some good prices and excellent quality. I think for this situation to be safe the adjustable like in the link might be best.

I hope this helps,
