Tubular contro arms, any interest??

[Alan Pritchard]

What would be the main benefit, the only one I can think of is weight, and
obviously the ball joint issue like you stated. They sure would look sweet
though!!!  Be interesting to find out more, although I cannot conceive how
much a cutom part like that would cost....

Hi guys,

I am in process of designing some tubilar control arms for the type-81,
type-85 and type-89 cars.
The control arm would include provisions for stock sway bar, custom sway
bar, suspension link a'la rally cars and rose joint type ball joint.
The arms could use OEM, "hard" or needle bushings.
Also, this would eliminate the now almost impossible to find stock ball
joints..
Obviously wide veriaty of materials can be used depending on price.

Let me know if you are interested and possibly how much you would be willing
to pay for such bolt on kit (per axle).

Thanks in advance.
Cheers
