The A-arms entitled “G-Plus” have billet cross shafts, Del-a-lum bushings, upper bump stops, ball joints and are assembled ready for installation.
G-Plus is a performance control arm line Global West Suspension produces that improves the geometry by changing the length, or specific angle, of the control arm to improve the vehicles handling.
The Global West Advantage:These arms are designed to have more positive caster then stock. Caster provides straight line stability, and increased corner entry because of the camber sweep. This design works best for handling auto-cross, road racing, or just having fun.
The Del-a-lum bushing has grease fittings and works similar to a bearing. The bushing allows the arm to pivot straight up or down smoothly without bind and without deflection. The ride is not harsh and because of the durability of the bushing your alignment will maintain even during hard cornering.
Please Note: True Global West control A-arms have Global West engraved in the cross shaft and are made in USA.
