Ball Joint Upper Control Arms

Previous Product | Next Product
Overview

 Description

There are multiple issues when lifting your vehicle with stock upper control arms. Both the geometry and strength are compromised due to over articulating the stock arms. We solved these problems by designing our upper control arms with increased castor and repositioned pivot angles reducing stress on the joints. The increased castor allows for proper alignment and improved handling. We upgraded the ball joints to heavy duty Moog joints for maximum strength and increased articulation. For the inner pivots we use durable delrin bushings with grease fittings for easy servicing. All of the components on our upper control arms are rebuild-able or replaceable to make this product last a lifetime. The arms come preassembled and include detailed instructions for easy installation.

 Specifications

  • Wheel Travel: Additional 2” of travel compared to stock
  • Amount of Lift: 0-3”
  • Track Width: Stock
  • Maximum Backspacing: 4.75”
  • Minimum Rim Size: 17”
  • Compatible with Sway Bar: Yes
  • Coil Over Shock Size: Stock or OEM replacement shocks

Wheel Travel / Lift
The upper control arms must be paired with OEM replacement coil overs to lift the vehicle. They offer an additional 2” of travel compared to the stock upper control arms. These arms are compatible with King, Fox, Bilstein, ADS and Icon coil overs. Do not install these upper control arms with coil spacers that over articulate the suspension.

Tire Info
The upper control arms allow for 35” tires but for proper tire clearance modifications to the wheel well and bumper may need to be made.

Magnetic Ride Control
Installing this suspension on vehicles equipped with magnetic ride control require modifications to the ride control sensors. If you choose to replace the magnetic ride control shocks with coil overs it will cause an indication light to appear on the gauge cluster.

The shipment can be delivered to a home or business. The customer must be present for the delivery to inspect and sign for the package. Before signing confirm that you received all items listed on the packing slip and nothing is damaged. If you receive damaged parts or are missing parts leave a note on the bill of landing and sign it. Make sure the driver is aware of the situation and signs your copy of the bill of landing with the noted damages or missing parts. Once you have taken possession of the package file a claim with Dirt King by sending an email to sales@dirtkingfabrication.com. Please include your order number, copy of your bill of landing, and photos of the damaged items or list of missing parts. Do not discard any of the original packaging or try installing the products. Dirt King will do everything possible to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.
