New LCA's installed
Got a set of Freedom Racing Tool & Die lower control arms from the UPS guy today.
Talk about some beautiful pieces. I almost wanted to just mount them on the wall but the wife protested. It's raining so I couldn't really get too crazy on my test drive but it actually seemed to ride better.
Stock
The new pieces
Side by side comparisons..
New arms installed...
I also put the included decal on the back window since they are supporting our Tail of the Dragon / Wounded Warrior fund-raiser.
and I finally decided to cut down my rear bump stops since there was only about 3/8" of travel before they made contact.

Another school of thought on rear axle bumpstops is that leaving them stock allows a more progressive effect from when they first contact to when it is like driving a go kart, i.e. solid suspension.

It rides a lot nicer now, I swear it does.
