Re: lowering control arms

Ive had 2 sets of these on 2 different trucks........not this manufacturer. I had issues w/ scrub line on both vehicles. If you do not use a large rim it may be an issue. Just a thought for ya.

Re: lowering control arms

DJM is good, and I agree, avoid AIM at all costs. They argued w/ me and said only way I could send the disc brake spindles back was if I payed 30 percent restock and even hung up on my dad and I both and called us liars and that our 66 came w/ disc brakes. Just avoid em and save yourself a lot of hassle.

Re: lowering control arms

I'd have to think the geometry through the whole range of suspension travel would be somewhat screwed up. Plus, I wonder how well the upper ball joint would do in its over-extended position...
