The UMI Performance tubular non-adjustable upper control arms are a direct bolt-on suspension upgrade for 1968-1972 GM A-Body vehicles. Replacing the subpar factory arms, they use polyurethane bushings with grease fittings to reduce traction loss and improve ride quality while minimizing wheel hop and sharpening cornering. Built from 1.625 inch OD by 0.120 inch DOM mild steel tubing with CNC machining and fully TIG and MIG welded construction, they install in about an hour with no drilling using the existing OEM hardware. These control arms are made in the USA and finished in a durable black powder coat. Sold as a pair.
