Control Arm material

[SeanC]

Thanks for the responses guys. My birthday is next weekend and I'm kind of thinking my parents might be getting me the ones with the rod ends (I love birthdays! haha)....I'm just praying they're not going to be really loud...I'm guessing when you say "Road noise", your saying that they're going to squeak and chatter? I contacted the company to ask what they thought, and they claimed they would be a good choice, but yes, they will be a little louder than normal. I'm just not sure quite HOW loud. I have a loudmouth II which usually deadens any noises above 1500 RPMS

Road noise is everything from bumps tothe harmonics that the tires going across the pavement makes. you'll hear things, that's for sure.

Im starting to think that the reason I have so much damn road noise is those control arms. Ima swap in my stockers and see how much of a different it makes. BC right now its INSANE loud! Its almost undriveable.

Keep in mind my Springs, shocks, and Z-Rated tires. Shocks even at low settings are hella stiff.

Haha you guys are killing me...i'm so worried now if I am getting them. It seems like a matter of opinion, some people say they are completely fine for a DD, and others say they are miserable. I guess we'll find out if I get them for my b-day! If not, i'm probably going to go for the ones Injuneer pointed out (seems like the best of both worlds).

Yeah Those J&M LCA are pretty nice. I would recommend those.

I use the aforementioned part from J&M. Works perfectly...no deflection and zero noise.

Which one did you get Al?
