Awesome, Ive been looking at them on curries website trying to figure out which one i could have machined into the stock LCA. Regardless though awesome build. keep us posted!!

Adapting a jony joint to OEM control arm puts a good part with a bad part. OEM control arms are only stampings and have no where near the strength a fabricated tube design would have. I have seen what high HP can do to our stock control arms on a Dyno and it is scary. I would not recommend using the basic frame work of our control arms instead I think it would be best to start from scratch such as we did and make the basic control arm structure from heavy wall tubing specifically E4340. We may have over engineered our CA but unlike ZZP who under engineered theirs (not sure if it was the heim joint that gave out or a structural issue with the tubing being too light and not able to hold up to the stresses of the design) and took them off the market - we will never have an issue with structural failure.

You can see the jony joint we used. Overkill maybe but it won't fail.

Large enough to slide right into the cradle where the original control arm joint bolted up. Run your bolt through just like the OEM and wall-la a perfect fit.

So I have to bump this old thread. This car is amazing and just a complete work of art. I sent the owner a message about the car and how it was holding up. Great guy to talk to and he informed me of his next venture. Some of you on multiple forums probably already know of this, but it was news to me so I thought I would share it. The thread can be found here, and I am sure this car will be even more amazing that the first as we learn what will and will not work.
