i tried calling that company and theyre closed

cant find an official site tho

Torque arm & LCA's FTW! :lol: honestly i have no clue...your only like the 2nd guy with a setup like that so i have no clue what to tell ya.

98ta u still have those busted bars?i can weld them for u if u like,or if u want ill buy them off u

get BMR or spohn stuff, that **** wont break

They don't make anything for that style rear suspension.

He's not running a torque arm - it's a modified 4 link that just a few guys are trying out.

id say go back to a TQ arm type suspension and you'll be fine. do you possibly have that "third mount" you were trying to sell a while back? if so just install that and a spohn tq arm/ lca setup.

theres a welding shop 1 minute from me, im gonna go out there tomorrow to see what they can do for me. im going to have them weld me the same thing, but boxed and 1/4" thick steel for XXtra strength. i just love how this setup plants the tires.. 1.83 60 on street tires! i cant wait till i see what it will be on DRs or ETstreets

heh, i dunno if u want them here they are--

holy poop

nm i thought u only cracked one.

You want a poly bushing on one end and rubber on the other. Edlebrock sells an LCA like that.

You need the rubber to absorb the impact at launch, if you have poly's all around there is no give and things will snap.

i see.. i will check em out online tonight. but i could have a shop make them and they are right down the street. I'll see what happens

damn! good job at crackin them in half! :lol:

they should be making them out of heavier wall tubing!

Go for the Pete-Z setup, it works with the stock LCA, which can be boxed.

I can build you Lower control arms that wont break, out of heavier 4130 tubing, and mount the tabs closer to the front of the control arm, so the leverage working to break them is reduced.

If you look at it, it's not a normal LCA. It has that extra tab welded to the top for an additional bar there. It's somewhat like a modified 4 llink setup, there is no torque arm on his car.

dang! just a lil late. i got someone on it. gonna be made strong as hell. i couldntve made it anymore clear to the guy i know that i dont want them breaking, lol. hopefully its real soon that i get them back....

Thats not a 4-link, its a ladder bar.

A 4 link has seperate upper and lower links which allow the instant center to be placed at an imaginary point.

the ladder bar has a definite instant center.
