Haven't progressed to alignment yet though.
If you decide to use the Chinese upper arms replace the ball joints with moog or maybe Howe if you want to go with a taller joint. 2 people on the Chevelle forums have had the ball joints catastrophically fail. Luckily no one was hurt. Another person had the welds x-rayed and they passed. The arms themselves seem to be sturdy enough but some have reported geometry problems and difficulty aligning but that could be from frame sag.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
