Product Details

If you're building a drag car based on a GM G-Body from 1978 to 1988, getting the front suspension geometry dialed in for launch is critical. This QA1 Upper Control Arm Kit is specifically designed to help you achieve that, correcting outdated geometry and promoting optimal weight transfer off the line. It's a well-built system that can make a real difference in your 60-foot times.

What sets these arms apart is the combination of lightweight construction and bind-free movement. They come with QA1's Ultra Low Friction Ball Joints and composite bushings, which allow the suspension to articulate smoothly during the intense forces of a drag launch. This smooth movement helps ensure the weight transfers to the rear tires as efficiently as possible. You'll also find billet aluminum shafts here, which are a notable feature for reducing front-end weight while still offering the durability needed for street driving. QA1 has also included an adjustable droop stop, giving you a way to fine-tune how much the front end rises during launch. These arms are configured to work with QA1 Pro Coil Systems and feature double shear lower mounting for added strength.

This kit is designed as a bolt-in installation and includes the necessary ball joints and bushings. It's a popular choice for racers looking to improve their car's performance on the strip. The high-strength tubing and billet aluminum cross shafts contribute to making these some of the lightest control arms available without sacrificing the durability needed for street use. They are robotically welded and finished with a durable powder coat, giving them a clean look that holds up well.
