Re: Shortening Control Arms for Narrowing Track

Most of us are lowered enough that the upper control arm needs a bunch of shims to fix the camber. If you shorten just the lower it will just require an alignment and not have as many shims.

It will slightly decrease the camber gain through the suspension cycle as well for those who like to roll a bit low.
