Tubular control arms

Looking for a good reasonably priced set of tubular control arms for my 86. Anyone have any experience with the different brands?

Re: Tubular control arms

For coil springs or air bags?

I like Porterbuilt arms the best.

Look at this thread.
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...444746&page=35

Member Gringoloco is getting ready to install a set of coil spring PB control arms.
The Porterbuilt arms can be ordered for bags, coil springs and coil over shocks.
They can also be narrowed or lengthened.

The newest version is the 1" forward control arm to help center the wheel in the fender and increase caster for better handling.
