Suspension and frame work, cracked LCA, advice welcome
Lower Control Arms reinforcement plates make these mopar LCAs much stronger than stock.
I think it is one must do job when you have the front suspension serviced.
I made the stiffening plates myself out of a 2.5 mm thick steel plate, after making a prototype out of cardboard.
The one detail in welding these plates is make sure they are aligned as they are supposed to. I cut the welding on the top plate of the LCA which holds both parts together, to be able to press them tight in place before welding the bottom and top plates in place.
The result was amazing compared to the original LCAs, now they feel really as one piece.
