Doesn't say anything about being adjustable.. either one... and i would think adjustable = more expensive... lower control arms 2 is more expensive.

I think maybe the bushings are different. the tubular ones are definitely greasable, I dunno about the other ones. might be different material used.

One has a boxed arm and the other is tubular. Regardless of their design they are both horribly over priced. Buy some Granatelli Upper and Lower CA's for about $160 shipped on eBay

#1 has grease fittings in it. It looks like #2 doesn't. Maybe #2 are lighter and stronger?
