Best lower control arm?
ORIGINAL: Drew47000000
What about these? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/PERF-...QQcmdZViewItem I think it says they are the "poly-ball" combo. For someone not looking to lower their ride or anything like that I think they may be suitable.. Not to mention, the price is right!!!

Through my past expirience with my own cars and customers cars, I stay clear of polyurathane in places like control arms. Nothing but aggravation IMHO.Rod ends work, but you better like aroughride. Also they wear on the street too. I can live with poly on the sway bars to some extent, but not at suspension pivots like control arms. It is just my taste.
I just ordered the factoryGT500 arms from FRPP. They have higher durometer RUBBER bushings as I understand it and have a beefier cross section for less flex. I have not installed them or recieved them yet.
They may not be the strongest,or have the least amount of deflection compared to aftermarket stuff. But they will be a bitstiffer but shouldnot transmit a ton ofNVH, help combatthe minimal wheel hopthe car has, stay quiet, need no greasing and cleaning,or replacing of bushings every 10K miles, etc, etc.
I hardly ever go to the track, and the car doesent feel all that bad to me to be perfectly honest.To me, 64-67 GM A bodies like GTO's have violentwheel hop issues. The 05+ stangs haveminimal hopin comparison but it doesent hurt to cut it back a bit.
They were 114 bucks with shipping from lethal. They are close to 300 bucks at the parts counter, but FRPP sells them for $99. Go figure.

Also performance wise they are better than stock, but they are not as firm as typical aftermarket.
