Default Whats the difference???

Ok, im set on buying some HPE Megabyte control arms. I know im going with the Megabyte Jr. LCA's but there are 4 types of UCA's that they offer. They offer their HD UCA's, Radius Rod UCA's, Single Adjustable UCA's(adjustable off car), and Double adjustable UCA's(adjustable on car). Which one would be the best??? And also, what is a radius rod control arm??? Ive never seen anything like that. looks like its gonna be lighter but maybe not as strong. And another thing...what is more beneficial if i have to buy them at different times??? If i had to buy either uppers or lowers, which one would you buy and why??? Any help would be great guys.

http://www.mperacing.com/suspension.html

http://hpmperformanceproducts.com/page.php?7

Its the HPM Megabyte control arm series. they are about half way down the page on the first link. they are supposed to be some of the most stout control arms out there by the local racers. and the second link is actual company website with a description.

P.s. PLEASE DONT BAN ME!!! DONT SEND ME BACK TO MYSPACE!!!

I have mega bite jr lowers and they are great. I didn't like the look of their uppers because the didn't change the cars IC. Look at baseline suspension or team z for uppers.
