fixed

Yes to the first part and Yes to the second, since they are one and the same. Upper and lower control arms are needed components to having a full suspension.

I would say so and as he said ^^^ its a part of having a full suspension. I'm actually getting control arms as my next mod from http://www.blueovalindustries.com/pr...php?catID=1295

You might want to invest in Torque box kit to go with the CA's, so you don't rip anything out on hard launches. Blue Oval Ind. has them and UPR also. I got new CA's and the Torque box kits coming in a day or two.

I'm sure he's no where near the 1.6 60' or the Tq for them to matter much right now. I would get the U/L, 31spline, tires then get the Tq boxes.
