JUNK! Seriously though, let me try and find the thread over on hardcore50 where guys have literally snapped these arms in half. They are also going through a lawsuit right now, because all they do is copy designs. It would stay away from them like the plague.

James is right--the road racing forum on Corral has quite a few threads on this topic. Just a rip off of MM. If you like that style--get the originals. I may have some Summit tubulars for sale if I can get some MM's.

If you are looking for a good arm for a decent price, get the Pro3i arms. If you got the money get the MM arms.

GMS is crap. All he sells is cheap chinese copies of the real deal.

There ya go, and there are lots more where that came from.

I agree, go w/ the MM's if you can afford them, or go with the Pro3i's if not.

i can afford the mm,s i am just wanting to do a bunch of rearend work and i was wanting to save a little money somewhere :confused:

[88ssp]

Do it right the first time or spend more money doing it twice? Where is the real savings? Believe me--I just did a 5 lug swap with cheap arms and I'm switching it all out again--whole setup. Sux

i am probably going to go with the pro3i's. let me know if any knows of a good control arms for a good price. what about the UPR's are they any good?

If you want the car to be mostly dragged, I have also heard awesome things about team z suspension pieces over on www.hardcore50.com , and they are dedicated to drag racing.

I would avoid Granatelli, everything they make seems to be mediochre at best. UPR is pretty good, I have had good luck with Pro3i stuff also. Team Z stuff is good as well. There are plenty of good companies, just depends what you want to do and what you want to spend.

All of those companies (UPR,Team Z,Pro3i) make a satisfactory product, it is more dependant on what exactly you want.

There are also quite a few threads on the Corral as well.
