    Cheap tubular control arms for replacements?

    This school of thought works pretty well for Uncle Sam. The only country in the world that can whip us in the air is Israel, and they're using our hand-me-downs.

    Tubular UCAs

    They're only $400. I'll get 'em, just for good measure. When you mount them, do they rest directly on the eccentric bolts, metal to metal? I see no room or provisions for bushings of any kind.

    Tubular UCAs

    Tubular UCAs with bushed ends kind of defeats my purpose of getting them in the first place. Now, the ones that adjust while mounted, that seems like the best of both worlds. How are the quality of those pieces? I'd like to have the adjustablility without having to make back and forth trips to...

    Tubular UCAs

    I'd think that you'd be able to get the car just as low by backing off of the adjusters. I'd also think that you'd be able to get it even lower because the tension of the thicker bars would prevent the car from bottoming out as quickly as the thinner, softer /6 bars that are in the car now. Am I...

    Tubular UCAs

    I want it pretty low. Something like this: I've already got the stock disk brake setup, a sway bar and Energy Suspension's poly kit. Nothing is installed yet, I'm getting it all together and doing it all at once. It's a daily driver and I'm tired of it handling like crap. I planned on 15"...

    Tubular UCAs

    I'm going to back off of the TB adjusters and get the nose of the Valiant out of the sky. Should I get tubular upper control arms for the sake of adjustability or should I be ok with the stock control arms? If I should get 'em, what brand do y'all prefer?

    Energy Suspension

    I gotta be honest, I'm having a hard time focusing. That avatar is creepin' me the hell out.

    Energy Suspension

    I may have watched too many episodes of Top Gear and could be over-analyzing the suspension in a 35-year-old 4 door car, but do the different bushing materials change the way the system components work together?

    Sway Bar End Link Tabs

    I need some for my upcoming front end rebuild/upgrade. Does anybody sell 'em?

    Air shocks??

    I've never had them, so I don't know how they ride, but I met a guy at a cruise-in on Saturday with air shocks on his Swinger and it looked gooooood.

    They're small nuts. Take 'em off and the cover will slide right out.

    Energy Suspension

    It would have to be a very significant discount. I just priced the Energy Suspension graphite impregnated polyurethne bushing set (including rear spring and shackle bushings and the poly LCA bushings, which PST doesn't offer), Moog ball joints and Monroe gas shocks for all 4 corners (all on...

    Energy Suspension

    That's mighty white of you, Leanna. So you know, I never considered our little tiff a problem, per se. My brakes went out again. That's a problem. My dog coughed up a human finger. That's a problem. I'm easier than a prom queen with a belly full of rufies and hold no grudges. Merry Christmas to...

    Energy Suspension

    Thanks. I suppose I could give 'em a shot of white lithium grease to keep the noise down.

    Energy Suspension

    I'm going to buy polyurethane bushings in the next day or two so I can put this disk brake setup on and I saw a kit from Energy for $127 on Ebay. Is this a reputable company? Has anybody used their HYPER-FLEX stuff? If not, any suggestions?
