Default Contol Arms?

Hi Guys,

I am in the UK and have a 93 5.0.

I really need to get some lower control arms!

I have so far run 13.88@106 with a slow 2.15 60ft. I just cant hook it up!

Can anyone recommend a contol arm manufacturer?

I was checking out http://www.allfordmustangs.com/forums/timeslips.php

You guys really can 60ft!

I am going to run on 235 Nitto Drag Radials.

Can anyone help?

i would go with a set of adjustable upr they are a good arms for the money.get your pinion angle set in with adjustables and much more invest in a 5.0 chassis tuning manual and some drag racing springs and adjustable struts and rear shocks a set of agx are good struts&shocks you will hook alot better.but make sure you have a good drag tire or slick good luck
