Question Who makes the lightest upper and lower A-Arms??

I have heard of tubular sub frames cracking/ breaking etc. I daily drive my car sometimes on less than perfect pavement. Do the tubular a-arms upper and lower have the same problems? Are they prone to cracking etc?

Who has the lightest and how much can one expect to save weight wise?

Hello
Like mentioned above! If you are looking for a lite A Arm. I would highly suggest going with a chrome moly version. They are actually 2.5 lbs lighter than the mild steel. And if you are looking to cut a lot of weight I would just suggest looking into a complete front suspension package. You will save around 38lbs total. Below is a link to show you what all UMI Performance has to offer.

If you have any other questions feel free to ask! And I will be more than glad to help.
Thanks
Brad
