A little less wieght...A little more eye candy!
 
Just thought I would let you guys see some more goodies that I got for the project. Since I got the K-member on there, I just didn't think it would look right without some upper and lower A-arms. Spohn to the rescue! The look awesome and wiegh in much less than the stockers. Between the K-member and the control arms alone, I will be shedding about 50 lbs.


Upper and Lower control arms:

Look like they are very high quality and 50 pounds off the front of the car is perfect.

Nice, do you have it installed ? Me want to see pics :) Did you get them in Mild Steel or Chrome-moly ? I don't know about 50 lbs. off the front end. I have the BMR setup with the MOOG ball joints and I'm pretty sure it only weighed a little less than factory. Either way, your parts look good !

Looks good- I never go by the manufactor specs on weight loss or performance. But I'm sure you did lose some weight, but eye candy is always nice-

Sinister95Z 04-04-2008 09:14 PM

I went with Chrome-moly for the most wieght savings. The K-member alone is worth about 30 lbs., so I just figured about 5 lbs. per arm on the rest of the wieght. I could be wrong, but either way it sure does look good!

I haven't got the arms installed yet due to a missing spacer and the fact that I am thinking about having the upper A-arm mount and spindle powder coated black. I want to do this once and do it right. Thanks for the compliments guys.

Looks awesome! i want to instal the same arms and K member on mine.. but black. How is the fitment to the uper a arm mounting, and the k member against the frame? What was the total cost?
