Upper Control Arm Choices

Hi guys (and gals),

I'm stuck in decision mode. Ordered a full OME kit and still need to order UCA's. There are great deals right now. I can get both Light Racing and Camburg (re-use ball joint) for about $360 shipped.

With Camburg, I could re-use the ball joints confused or order Moog joints for another $75 shipped. Camburg doesn't recommend Moog as their tolerances can vary and some people have shaved some metal off pressing them in. Wheelers sells them pressed for $529 (not shipped), but if I did that I might as well go Icon tubular uniballs for $579 no tax or shipping.

Light Racing are a great price with nothing extra needed for install. My biggest hesitation with them is the extra moving parts/difficulty for ordinary shops to align. Yelp has a shop ~ 15 mi away that specializes in custom suspension alignments. I also like the appearance of Camburg's better, but that is a very low priority.

After reading my own post, I am leaning towards Light Racing. What do ya'all think?

 

Another recent thread you may find some info in:

Thanks, somehow I missed that thread... all these sales have my head spinning

 

Alright, I know it's not the most popular choice, but I went with Camburg and stock b/j. They're beefy and (hopefully) won't get knocked out of alignment easily. Light Racing's are great, but Camburg checked out $30 cheaper, and I think I wanted those all along. I have a friend with a press, so it should be an easy install. Thanks for all who voted (even though I didn't really listen to you ) and sorry for yet another UCA thread.
