Adjustable Control Arms

I saw over at Top Gun Customz they have adjustable control arms but there like $350. Do they just use threaded ends to adjust and a piece of two inch pipe for the bushings. If so they would be super easy to make for a lot less anyone know? Thanks Joel

Well, if I were going to build some I'd use chromoly tubing with spherical rod ends and misalignment spacers at both ends. To save a few bucks you could use bushings at the frame end. If they are only asking $350 for the set then I doubt they are building them to these standards.

Why would you want/need adjustasble control arms? You can get up to 5* out of the OEM cam bolts......

I want to try and center the axles a little more and, Ive still got DW. I move the big part of the cam to the front and nothing seemed to change. Ive got some old BFG's on right now and I think there part of the problem.

The adjustable control arms that TGC sell are the ones out of the Rough Country 5" X-Series lifts. Just thought I'd let you know. Those DT Control Arms are nice looking pieces. Thuren also has great quality stuff; just another option.
