G-Plus control arms are designed for performance street, however cars crossing over into drag racing are also utilizing this application. TLC drag race control arms are available for the dedicated race car. (TLC arms)

G-PLUS arms bolt directly to stock spindles or 2 inch drop spindles. The arms have additional caster built into the them and a improved camber curve. The combination keeps the tire contact patch flatter on the pavement verses stock. A bump stop is installed on the control arm eliminating the stock one on the frame. The new bump stop location allows for a limiter, which can be installed for drag race applications. Billet cross shafts and top of the line Del-a-lum bushings (which reduce suspension drag) are incorporated making this control arm superior for all applications. New alignment specifications are included. G-Plus control arms are offered with Del-a-lum bushings or polyurethane. The control arms are shipped assembled with bushings, ball joints, billet cross shafts, and bump stops,

Tubular Lower Control Arms for coilover shock and spring applications.

To the left is a CTA-88H. The arm is designed for converting your vehicle over to a coilover application. Coilover is where the spring rests on the shock. The shock body (below on the right) is threaded and has an adjustable collar that rotates around the body. Special springs are also used. Coilover shocks and springs give you an added benefit of adjustable ride height. No frame modifications are required. The lower arms are specifically designed for supporting vehicle load through the shock. Afco, and QA-1 shocks will bolt directly to the lower control arms.

Note: Coilover lower arms will not support using a standard coil spring. The spring is conical and installs in the frame just like the factory unit. The shock goes through the spring and bolts on the top of the control arm rather than from the bottom and the shock shaft bolts to the frame.

There are two different lower arms available, the difference is what bushings are used Del-a-lum or polyurethane. They are shipped fully assembled with ball joints, bump stops, sway bar end links and bushings.
