I recently bought some lakewook adjustable control arms pt#20149. Went to install them and my luck there too long. With the arms adjusted completely inward they are about 1/4in. longer than the stock arms. curse_sign.gif
Any suggestions or comments about these arms or situation would be greatly appriciated

thanks,dwight

I had the same problem with the same eBay uppers. I think they are packaged wrong and they are really for an A body. I made mine work, but it took quite a bit of time with a grinder.

If you need some upper that will fit give us a shot. We have a poly version and a spherical version. Both versions are made from 1 5/8" dom steel with a 1 1/8" cnc machined steel and zinc plated for corrosion resistance. Here is a link to our site. Let me know if you have any questions.

Hello,

I wonder if maybe you got a 64-67 A-Body set of control arms? All dimensions are the same except they are longer.

Our control arms are preset to factory length and offer adjustment to make them longer and shorter.

The center to center on a G-Body upper should be 11.125"

Hope that helps!
Ryan
