What are you doing? Driving to grandmas; drag racing on slicks; auto crossing or what?

Don't spend money on control arms unless you have slicks first. You'll see people running great 60 foot times and bad 60 foot times with everything from stock to south side machine control arms. Sticky tires will give you 10 times the gains of control arms.

I'd recommend any lower control arm with sperical bearing one end and a poly bushing on the other...Very simply put: There is "bind" in the rear suspensions of Mustangs, you need to have poly one end and bearing the other...My favorite would be maximum, but there are a lot out there...
If you like your ride height the way it is then don't waste your money with perch adjustables...And if you want to dial in your pinion angle I think it's best to do that with the upper control arms...
Good luck...

I just ordered Pro3i lowers (spherical bushing rear, poly front) and zinc plated steeda uppers.
I researched quite a bit before I bought, and I fully expect to be pleased with this combo.

i had the same question and decided to go with the fms upper heavy duty dontrol arms. i think johnb has those... they way i saw it was.. if johnb's 600 cobra is doing ok with those then they'll be more than plenty for my weak ass car. I got the non-adjustable MM lower control arms. To be honest, i wish i would have paid the extra money and gotten the MM drag racing ones. I have yet to install them since i've been pretty busy. And i have some kyb quadshocks thanks to carlos(losbadgt).
question for apex= could i return the standard ones and exchange them for the drag racing ones? they have not been installed, they haven't even been taken out of the box. the box was opened at your store. let me know.
