Has anyone actually installed a set of Rustic front control arms on an SS? Any problems with the install?

I have installed the front LCA, they went in w/o any major problems. I will do uppers later, these are some really nice CA.

Later,

make sure you let everyone know of any issues, like alignment, or turning radius. i haven't heard anyone rave about them.

Paul,

Sorry about the late reply.
I wish I could answer your question, but I have an air-ride suspension on my car. But I didn't notice one side sitting closer than the other.

there will be issues. called speedtech about lowers and got the same answer. another month. he says they work 4 days on and 4 days off. no wonder they take a long time. good looking product though
