the stock control arms are stamped steel and form something resembling a c-channel. They're flexible as all hell under racing type loads. Boxing the uppers is simply welding a little slap of metal on the open face of the arm to make it into a full box. That makes them a lot stronger.

I only recommend and use Maximum Motorsports. A set of their rear height adjustable lower control arms, FRPP uppers, and a full set of adjustable shocks and struts would be a good start.

After you finish that come back and I'll give you stage 2.


BTW, if you buy anything with Granatelli's name on it you'll: be ridiculed by me and thousands of others, be playing with disaster cuz GMS makes crap, be slapped with a fish if we ever meet.
