BMR Upper Control Arms Bushings Adjustable for Buick Grand Sport & Chevrolet El Camino (1968-1972)
Are you ready to take your 1968-1972 GM A-body to the next level? The BMR Upper Control Arms Bushings are designed to enhance your vehicle’s performance in a way that feels natural and seamless. With these adjustable control arms, you can launch harder, reduce wheel hop, and enjoy consistent cornering like never before.
Why Choose BMR Suspension?
Stock control arms often come with soft rubber bushings that flex under load, absorbing power rather than transferring it to your tires. BMR Suspension's polyurethane, on-car adjustable tubular control arms (part number UTCA005) are crafted from heavy-duty 1 5/8 inch, 0.20120-inch wall DOM steel tubing. The CNC-machined chrome-moly steel center adjuster is built for strength and durability, ensuring you get the most out of your ride.
