QA1 drag racing lower control arms are built to improve launch and 60-foot times on 1982-2004 Chevrolet S-10 & GMC Sonoma vehicles. A QA1 Ultra Low Friction ball joint and composite bushings give bind-free movement at launch for optimal weight transfer, while an adjustable droop stop lets the front-end rise be dialed in. Billet aluminum shafts cut front-end weight yet keep the durability needed for street use, and the arms use high-strength tubing that is robotically welded and powder coated. They are configured for QA1 Pro Coil systems with double-shear lower mounting.
