Does anybody have the dimensions for the lower control arms of our cars handy? I have some bigger rims I want to put on my car but I think I need to tuck it in some and still leave the wheels straight up and I was thinking about using the lower arms off of another car that might be a bit shorter.
Maybe a teg or something

I dont have them off hand, but it's prety damn easy to do it yourself. :)

yea but I'm at work and if somebody has the measurement I can be researching it online. I need to look for Tuner Lugs too

shit...


From 1985
Double Wishbone Suspension:
Honda was one of the first to adopt this new system to cope with the increased performance associated with DOHC engines. This is when the ride improving high mount upper arm layout was first developed. Unequal length lower arms were similarly adopted to restrict brake steer, and improve maneuverability.

UNEQUAL length... that's going to make shit difficult
