The upper A-arms are not going to be a weight saving mod they do however have a few benefits over their stock counter parts.
- They allow for more castor adjustment aiding correcting front end geometry on lowered vehicles. The additional castor adjustment is also good for straight line stability.
- The arms react quicker at launch do to less bind from the rod end or bushings. The quicker the reaction at launch the car is going to leave the line more consistently resulting in better 60' times.
