Question Are Granatelli Upper & Lower Control Arms Any Good?

Does any know if these are a good set up? Im looking to control the rear end and hopefully lower my 60' times. Any input would be helpful.

GMS Upper & Lower Control Arm Kit for 79-04 Mustang - GMRS7901

Thanks

For serious drag racing launching on slicks or DR's, no. However they will for fine for a daily driven street car that see's the drag strip every so often.

those probably arent the best investment.
invest in a good set of LOWERS for now, then worry about uppers later.

the granatelli ADJUSTABLE lowers are pretty nice.. the best bang for your buck IMO.

I purchased the exact same set of Granatelli control arms that you have listed. They are pretty good from what I can tell and deffinately better than stock. However, they are made in China.
