New HRPARTSNSTUFF Rear Control arm July Special

Paul & I have been working together on developing a less expensive set of Rear upper & lower control arms, But with the HR quality.
So this is what we have come up with.

First off we know how much shipping has gone up & we are doing fixed shipping in the continental U.S.
$12 on uppers and $14 on lowers and $22 on a set!
Out of the Continental U.S. Please e-mail for actual adjusted shipping quotes.

Now for the Special pricing: The July "intro" pricing of $149 a set for uppers & $149 a set for lowers for July.They will go up & the special ends July 31st.
If someone orders uppers AND lowers as a set, we are pricing them at $289 retail, That is $298 priced separately.

The control arms were Built & Designed with a better quality & durability over the competition. Paul is suggesting the units for mid 11 second or slower. This is not to say they couldn't handle more Paul just feels that the faster vehicles should upgrade to adjustable & 1/4" longer arms for faster vehicles.

Everything he has built has been for Hi horsepower & torque vehicles. I was the one that suggested there is also a large market of customers who want the same quality but do not need the extreme duty of his current merchandise.

This was the result a less expensive but top of the line set of control arms with greasable Poly Bushings. In conjunction with a HR rear sway bar the performance would even increase.

We will have the Control arm special on our site shortly.
Bolt kits will be available in 2 weeks:
Bolts will be $16 for lowers & $10 for uppers .
Rear end housing Busings:
Bushings will be $29 for a pair of poly in gold shells, and
$59 for our # 0500 custom greasable style (like in our other uppers)

I'm alittle confused. These are not the same ones the he has been making all along? I have a set of his lowers from several years ago that look exactly the same. I was interested in getting the uppers to match. Are the new ones less strong than the older ones? Does he still make the same strength as the old ones for more money? Can I mix the old lowers with "new" uppers? I'm lost.

These are SIMILAR to our other "regular" design, and look close to the same in a picture. Here are a few differences:

New "level 1 series" that Brian is offering here is made from a 1.5 square tube. The lowers have end tubes with .120 wall, and the uppers have a .188 wall end tube. Also, the U-brackets on the uppers got slimmed down a little. We also used a new design for the stock swaybar provisions that saved some money. There is a spacer bar down inside that is tacked in place that keeps the square tube from crushing when bolting up the stock swaybar. Basically went with the idea to make a line of these that were much stronger & stiffer than stock with a much improved bushing, but also compete with the entry level stuff that our competitors offer. Ours will still out-perform our competitors version in strength & performance, and they look better too! These are GREAT for stock upgrades & improved handling & drag racing, and are complimented WELL with our swaybar/anti-roll setup.

Our Regular line that we have been making/selling for years is made from 1.5 x 2.0 rectangle tube (stronger/stiffer). The regular lowers have end tubes with .188 wall (1/16" more), and the matching uppers have a .250 wall (1/16 more). Also, the U-bracket on the end of the uppers has more size/area to it around the end and where it bends for added strength/integrety. Basically somewhere in the 11's seems to be where people should look to our "regular" lineup to gain added strength and performance advantages. Plus our regular line adds the option of going +1/4" on the lowers for added pinion angle, and offer the uppers in adjustable design too. These are also available with our "Extreme Duty" bushing upgrade, which the Level 1's are not.

One other IMPORTANT distinction between these Level 1 Series uppers & lowers compared to our "regular" arms is that on the Level 1's, the bolts and bushings for the upper rearend ears are available separately. We did this to keep costs down for those that wanted improved performance but might want to save by using the stock bolts and maybe already had upgraded bushings in the upper ears on the rear. Also, this way you guys can order the Level 1's with a std poly bushing or our "regular" custom greasable setup for no binding or squeaking. Might even price our regular line the same way, so people can compare apples to apples with our stuff and with our competitors. Finding out none offer a greatly improved bushing for the upper ears and grade 8 plated bolts with the arms as "standard" like we have been doing for years!

Just boils down to you pretty much get what you pay for, and some only have so much to spend & may already have some stuff. Now we offer suspension components that get you improved quality & better design & performance over our competitors at a very similar price! I have seen some pretty scary designs & really poor quality out there for the money. Anyone that knows us relates top quality and performance & great designs with our products, and these are nothing short of that.

We are also coming out with a few options for the faster cars as well! Anything from adjustable lowers with poly ends, to 2 different size/levels of rod end setups & round Chromoly tube ones for the REALLY fast cars Brian @ GBodyParts will have ALL of our parts & different designs/levels available once we get them all going. Watch for new posts later on this year or check our new site (coming soon) or GBodyParts.com Online for details!

I have been thinking about getting some lower control arms and these would fit my needs and my budget!! A deal like this will likely be the deciding factor!!
