Moderators Psychorugby Posted October 18, 2013 Moderators Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 So I guess I made a mistake when I ordered these UPR rear control arms. Having been talked out of them by several members, I am looking for new control arms. I'm pretty sure the discussion starts and stops with Maximum Motorsports lowers... correct? The real question is for the uppers. Are the UPR uppers as bad as the lowers? If I replace them, do I really need to go with double adjustable uppers? Maximum Motorsports only has non-adjustable uppers. Team Z has double adjustable uppers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think @F8L GT has baseline and @Knuckles has team Z.Baseline is certainly more affordable than MM or Team Z. Since I don't plan on racing except possibly to see what the car will do, this is a good option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team Z single or double adjustable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iRoush Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 I'm a fan of Baseline suspension, but that's just because I saw how well it did on [MENTION=38]Pushrod91[/MENTION] 's car. Doesn't leave much more square than this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Psychorugby Posted October 21, 2013 Author Moderators Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Was gonna say, maybe you can sell them and make back most of your money.No hits yet on them. Not sure why I didn't look at Team Z or Baseline originally. I like the look of the stuff and the price isn't as obnoxious as Maximum Motorsports. Now to figure out which to buy.

Moderators Psychorugby Posted October 21, 2013 Author Moderators Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Picked up Team Z adjustable uppers for $100 shipped. On the hunt for some adjustable lowers now! Also might have the UPRs sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Psychorugby Posted October 21, 2013 Author Moderators Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Sold the UPRs... out about $100, but small price to pay I suppose. Glad I won't have to worry about my rear end falling out of the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Psychorugby Posted October 22, 2013 Author Moderators Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Any difference for a street car between single and double adjustable lower control arms? It's only $20 more for the double adjustable so I am thinking of going with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double adjustable you can leave everything bolted up, loosen the jam nuts, and set your lengthSent from my MILESTONE3 using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my plan, but I didn't have a solid reason as to why. If I don't find them on Corral by this weekend, I guess I'll buy new and be done with it... just need to figure out if I need new hardware and where to get it.
