Default Can some one explain these rear control arms to me?


These are the kind that extend in length. Why would you need to extend them in length? Is it for when you jack up the rear to the extreme?

I wouldn't buy those, they look weak to me. What brand are they?

No it's for changing the pinion angle of the rear end.

Looks like with uppers and lowers like that you could extend the wheel base.
