    TRW control arms

    Anyone know a good place to buy them?

    TRW seems best, but I am always open to hear others' experience.

    there have been conflicting reports about quality, but FCP Groton cannot be beat for price. 4 upper control arms and tie rod ends - less than $100. I just put 1500 miles on them in two weeks, just had them checked, and so far so good!

    I thought the "go to" control arms these days were the Stėrn adjustable arms. I NEED new control arms soon & was going to order the Stėrns because of my ride height & wheel/tire width. I'm gonna check these other brands out too before I order.

    Stearns are only made for the upper Arms not the lowers. The are a quality piece but my car is lowered with KW V3's and I do have a little more Camber because of it by my tires still last 25K so I'm not worried about trying to get an extra 5~10K out of the tires.
