Re: what is the thickness of the stock lower control arms?
I measured some C30 arms & they were just shy of 1/4" @ .22. 1/2-ton uppers were just shy of 3/16". Both were measured @ the lower 'lip' of the control arm.

so 3/16 would be a good estimate of c10 arms? (im honestly not familiar with the different ratings, 1/2 ton 3/4 ton and such in relation to c10 and c30 and so on, sorry)

Re: what is the thickness of the stock lower control arms?
no just modifying them... i have access to professional welders (the men and the machines) i just dont have any way to accurately measure the thickness and i figured it would be easy enough to ask,
thanks for the quick help! ![]()
