those blue web designed control arms could not exceed 10-12 pounds. after looking at them a second time lol

Im sure they are at least 3/4" thick and need to be. 1/2" thick on a bagged truck is a recipe for disaster. the weight of the truck plus raising and lowering and then driving over rough road, bumps etc would bend 1/2"

These weigh alot more than 10-12 lbs. Theres absolutely no way they weigh less than 50 lbs a set. You have to remember they have crossbars, the bushing sleeves, the inner sleeves, balljoints, etc. thats alot of weight.
