BMR Suspension Upper Control Arms: Performance Redefined
If you're looking to take your 1968-1972 GM A-Body to the next level, BMR Suspension's Upper Control Arms with On-car Adjustable Rod Ends are the perfect solution. Designed specifically for models like the Buick Skylark, Chevrolet Malibu, Oldsmobile 442, and Pontiac GTO, these control arms are engineered to enhance your driving experience by improving launch, reducing wheel hop, and providing consistent cornering.
Why Choose BMR Suspension's Upper Control Arms?
The stock control arms on your classic ride may not deliver the performance you crave. With soft rubber bushings and stamped steel construction, they can flex under load, absorbing power rather than transferring it to the tires. BMR’s adjustable upper control arms are crafted from heavy-duty 1 1/4 inch DOM steel tubing, ensuring durability and performance. The center adjuster is made from CNC-machined chrome-moly steel, providing exceptional strength and reliability.
