Control arms advice/help for air bags
What are you guys running for control arms. Thinking about just cutting and cupping the lowers but what about the uppers, is there anybody running a aftermarket upper or should I just use stock? Want to lay low without braking the bank .
Thanks Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: Control arms advice/help for air bags
I just received cups to install in the lower arms while keeping the uppers stock. I hope it will it will do the trick. I don't to spend more money.

Plenty of guys run stock arms without issue. If not check out AZproperformance for tubular options

Re: Control arms advice/help for air bags
I ran stock for a while, but stock hang down pretty low and of course you have to remove the stock bumper stops and steering stops. I never was very happy with it, so I now run CPP lowers and Michigan Metal Works flat uppers. The CPP lowers are nice because the stops are already set up and ready to go. But on the down side, they are expensive. Due to cost I would run stock for awhile and then later change them out.

Re: Control arms advice/help for air bags
I recommend Strongarms for the lowers. Plenty of open space for the bags to flatten out, and they are BEEFY AS F. They really smoothed out feeling a lot of bumps in the road for me, and drop the crossmember about 1/8" off the ground. (Arm knuckles are so beefy they hit first). I've got some cheap POL tubular uppers and they're just fine.
