UMI is my first choice for LCA's. Awesome quality and performance. We also carry torque arms.

Give us a call.

We have a couple different options as far as lower control arms go, it really just depends on what kind of power you are making and what you want to do with the car.

The Jegs torque arm is a super big pain to install since you need to mount the plate in the tunnel for the torque arm to bolt to. Also the design and material of the rear bracket really are not all that great. There are definitely better options out there as far as torque arms go.

What are you doing with the car and what kind of power are you making? Answering this will really help me be able to recommend some parts to you.

For a car like that I would use our BMR double adjustable Chrome Moly lower control arms with the spherical rod ends, they are part number MTC003. They are light weight, durable and can take a beating.

And for that kind of power I would stay away from that Jegs torque arm, that torque arm would not handle the abuse you are looking to throw at it. I would recommend using something like our BMR xtreme torque arm which has been proven on 7 second cars and will take the abuse you are wanting to throw at it.

I run UMI and some other sponser stuff on my car. On yours with 1000hp I would look at the Mad Man stuff. Just my OP. Do it once and be done.

If you were going to do alot of street driving then UMI or BMR would be great. They both have nice parts and features.
