LG Style Front Control Arms?
Since LG doesn't offer these anymore, is there any other company out there that offers something similar?
We were discussing the tubular control arms on another board and many people shy away from them for daily use as the roads in their area (like mine) are too harsh.
Anybody else make something simliar?

I dont believe so, but I wish somebody would...
You may want to check in over at FRRAX to see what people are running... I think most of them are going the way of stock lower control arm with the Global West spherical bearing conversion.

We designed this new set for handling applications such as autocross and Road Race. The boxed arm features more support than the tubular designs which makes them capable of handling more stress.
I hope that helps,

I wish a suspension company would make aftermarket arms that use stock style rubber bushings. I am not a fan of polys and I can't imagine what rod ends would feel like and how long they would last on our terrible MI roads.

Ryan,
Whats the look for cost of these lower arms vs the chromoly lower arms? I will be ordering a complete front end package from you guys soon and now I have another choice to make

OEM's consider street duty as severe duty. Would you be willing to put your, or any one else's, tubular controls arms, and their rod ends, to street duty in the northeast, in rain, snow, ice, potholes for 100,000 miles? How much are you willing to forfeit if they fail?
That separates us a little from other companies, we are not out to make any buck we can and try to stay on a personable level. This is also why we do not do web site sales and prefer our customers to contact us instead so we know they are getting what they need.
To answer your question, we do put ourselves on the line, we constantly test everything we make here in house from full on race cars to our street driven toys. Myself and Eric have been doing different styles of motor sport racing for years from drag racing to Auto-X and some odd ball stuff in between.

I would like a stronger front control arm set offered just for the added ability to modify the alignment. Those are the benefits I would want.
Some want weight savings others alignment options.
