I bought the roller bearing spring perches and was thinking of spending on the upper control arms as well. Just wondering if anyone has seen better 60 foot or improvements from the upper and lower control arms as well?

I dont know for sure if there would be any improvement in 60 ft. but getting the front suspension to work much better than stock should be a benefit to the overall working of the car.
The stock factory suspension of the era was certainly not optimal, the rubber bushings and geometry was more like having the suspension in a bind, as it did'nt move too freely.

Hi Duff,
I don't know the back story here - what year/model car are you working on?  
Will it only see straight track use (trailered to and from) or do you expect to license it and drive it on the street?

Since this thread was started 6-months ago, what did you end up doing, are you happy with the geometry performance now?
