Something to do with strength isn't it

Re: Skunk 2 Billet Ally Lower Control Arms - Group Buy
plus the oe ones have grease ridges in them and are supposed to allow the arms to be free moving as you will.

Yes, 10.9 grade steel are better for use in the suspension.vinny19791 wrote:Something to do with strength isn't it

Re: Skunk 2 Billet Ally Lower Control Arms - Group Buy
Those suspension components look far too good to fit on a car.If this Group Buy is successful we will move on to other tasty suspension bits....
Any possibility of something like that for the Rover600/Honda Accord lower front arms?

I would have preferred gold, but unless someone else is short or has a colour that they were not expecting, and want to make a big deal about it.....
Then it's not the end of the world
If that makes sense
