is this guy serious? its one thing to put yourself in danger, but to try to sell that to someone else? unacceptable

 

Notched A-arms... what a dumbass.

 

Those should be yanked from eBay. Looks like they would brake from the first pothole they hit.

 

wow, what a total botch job

uncool, hopefully nobody buys them thinking they can get away with severely weakened UCA's.

I'm all about modifying things, but there is a right way and a wrong way, taking a plasma cutter (or acetylene torch) and "trimming" without reinforcing is just plain wrong when it comes to a critical part that gets stressed quite a bit. Parts like our factory control arms rely on that edge to give the part strength and rigidity.

 

just saw that they were no longer for sale on eBay! Hurray!

 

I can't wait to get home tonight and try that to my new '08 4x4

Anybody have a hacksaw I can use?

 

what a tool.....selling something dangerous like that.

 

Ha! About the only good thing that could be used for is for the recycle bin!

 

WOW, are you kidding me,Thats all you have to do to fit 285, Damn I was about to cut the wrong place HAha, Thats a true asshole move do something stupid like that then try to sell it.

 

I emailed him on eBay and shared my concerns. He said it was done by a local shop who after they notched the control arms, told him it was safe, well after a few emails, he began to realize 75 bucks was not worth it if someone got hurt because of them, so he pulled them off eBay. He is going to have them checked by another shop to see if they are safe. I doubt very much that they are. I was not sure if it was my place to email him but felt kinda obligated to - glad I did, who knows what might have happened if someone bought them and they failed while driving on the highway or anywhere for that matter.

 

good job man!!! good looking out for someone's safety!!!
