Re: Anyone ever raise the front controll arm mounts

Raising just the lower control arm mounts will definately throw off the geometry in the front suspension. It will mess up the camber swing through out the wheel travel up and down, and could possibly change bump steer depending on how all the geometry worked out. All of this will cause dangerous driving conditions, unless properly engineered. Now if you could raise upper and lower control arm mounts, and some how insure they all stayed in the same realtionship one to another, and was strong, it could work. Depends on how much work, engineering, and possibly liability you are willing to accept. Paul
