You can get a whole set from (upper and lower) blue oval industries for less than 1 pair of the ones your looking at. I have a set and am very happy with them. Same material and greasable poly bushings too.

Here is a link. The site is really slow tonight for some reason. Good luck!

Check out UPR and JD's performance for their sets of U/L control arms, too...under $170.

Hey Pro50SC, how's the handling with the blue oval industry ones? Can u feel a lil more traction?

I've also heard a few people talkin about the Granatelli Motorsports ones on eBay for an attractive price, can some people chime in on those too plz? Thanks.
