Improve Your F-Body’s Handling with a Bolt-On Control Arm Upgrade

Your 3rd Gen Camaro, Firebird, S-10, or G-body utilize similar lower control arms with the major difference being a larger bolt size for the front bushing possition on S-10's. The factory lower control arms use traditional stamped steel assemblies fitted with a inboard mounted coil spring with spindle mounted strut on the F-Body while the G-Body and S-10 use a coil spring and a shock absorber mounted to the lower control arm for dampening. These pieces provided a fairly decent ride, however, today’s world is vastly different. We want our cars to handle well, fit big disc brakes, and wide sticky rubber. The stock stamped steel control arms can literally flex and fail under the cornering and braking forces applied to them, especially in a track environment. The last thing any enthusiast wants is a part failure that could potentially cause damage to their pride and joy (or worse, cause injuries). Updating your F-body, G-body or S10 with Speedway Motors’ beefy tubular control arms strengthens and enhances your car or truck’s handling.

Stamped Versus Tubular, The Benefits of Our Control Arms Are Obvious

As we stated earlier, a stamped steel control arm invites lots of sloppiness into your suspension due to flexing and twisting. While a stamping is indeed stronger than a flat sheet of metal, tubing is stronger still. So, when creating tubular suspension with steel tubing you greatly increase the rigidity of the product, eliminating that slop from twisting and flexing. What does that mean for you behind the wheel? When it comes to tubular control arms vs stock stamped arms you dive into a corner on our tubular control arms your vehicle will go where you point it to. Getting down on that brake pedal for some extreme braking? Even your brakes will perform better since your tubular control arms aren’t flexing under that hard braking input.

These are the best tubular control arms Camaro, G-body, and S 10 owners will find and feature a robust 1-1/2-inch diameter tubing for the tubular lower control arms finished in a show-quality gloss black powder coat. Wall thickness of our tubular steel control arms is .120-inch which when combined with the material diameters these GM F-Body tubular control arms weigh in at 10 pounds each.

We have fitted greasable Delrin bushings and OE-spec ball joints to our tubular A arms with easy access grease fittings to make maintenance a breeze. Polyurethane bump stops are included for lower arm assemblies and these control arms are compatible with stock-style shock absorbers or can be used with aftermarket coilover shocks.

A Direct Bolt-In Solution That Is Easy to Install

Our tubular lower control arm bolts into place using your original control arm’s mounting hardware. If your fasteners have seen better days or went missing don’t worry, we offer F-Body and G-Body lower control arm hardware kit  to keep your project from grinding to a halt.

Factory style sway bar end links are compatible with the lower control arms and can be reused if yours are in good condition. Rubber sway bar end links frequently deteriorate and new polyurethane sway bar end links are offered individually as well as a 1-3/8" sway bar kit for F-Body or the 1-1/8” sway bar kit for G-Body.

What more could you ask for from a set of bolt-on Speedway Motors tubular control arms like these? Your F-body, G-body or S 10 gains increased handling, performance bushings with minimal deflection, and more, all at a fraction of the cost of the competition.
