Default new adjustable control arms

so i just got the adjustable control arms from precision tt. they seem thicker, more heavy duty than what they look in the picture. which is a good thing, i think. i'm just crossing my fingers that i don't put these on and they are complete junk. i don't want to hear creeking and cracking and popping on every bump i hit. they look almost identical the the cpt control arms (which i was minutes away from purchasing before i saw his for sale post). plus i chose them because i didn't feel like spending the same amount of money on bushings. bushings!?! gay.

anyone else already have these (from precision tt) installed?

i think there are pictures all over the place of this type of mod. anyone care for some pics?

I got them from precision TT too, waiting on back ordered Koni coilovers to be shipped from MJM. I think the arms look good, mine arrived with a little tear/split in the rubber boot, but there's grease in there so I'm not real worried about it. I'm also going to powdercoat the unfinished metal "U" before I install them.

Let me know how it all works out for you guys. I am there to offer any advice to ease the process. I think overall you wont find any stronger arms out there. also that longer factory bolt will make up for the thicker metal on the fork end. I also also want some reviews on the rubber boots if possible. i figure its going to be a few months before you can give some rain results (noise and such effects)
talk to you guys soon.
Also i might do a second run of arms as soon as i get a few people interested. I can have them ready within a month if people get together. Just PM me.

(there shouldnt be any noises.....btw)

My rubber boot had a 1/4" tear at the top of the joint on one of my arms like where it would impact if you dropped it, i think it got tossed in shipping. next time you ship these out pad the ends too. I'm going to see what it looks like installed, I tried contacting you for a replacement, precision.
