Re: [AMC-list] Who makes replacement upper control arms?

Should work okay on those medium size cars.

I had another Eagle and I saved the main leaf, and cut the eyes off to go into #2 position and the last 3 times I got 3" of lift easily. Wish I'd known about the control arms!

" I recently discovered the 2wd upper control arms for a Concord, Spirit,

" I'm looking for good replacements for my Eagle to go with it's lift. I

hmmm... those eagle control arms oughta do the same for any post-'70
amc, right?

" The rear is getting an extra leaf and already has air ride plus an XJ
" 8.25 rear diff going in. We had 2 feet of water on the driveway and road
" by my place, so getting out is important without getting soaked.

how about hd hornet/concord wagon springs? they're made for sua, and
with the eagle's soa should give you ~3" lift...
