Coil control arms

Anyone know of a site to get some tubular control arms that are strong and Will work with a drop coil?

I don't want to go any lower then what I already am. 5" is enough lol

Try Global West or Sphoon(?).

They both have coil arms with no drop. Global west will also improve you geometry.

Not these

It has the spring pocket. But by the looks of it you'd get a small drop.

This is stright from the ad:
   Quote:
   These a-arms are equipped with a spring "box", not a "perch". This provides for maximum strength and rigidity. Our spring box has a stepped spring seat that provides for proper seating of the spring around it's circumference.

They aren't advertised on the website yet, but I highly recommend the SPC lowers from SC&C. Marcus is a great guy to deal with and he knows his stuff regarding G-bodies and S-trucks. Here's what he told me regarding the SPC lowers in an email I got from him:

"...but you can get more handling gains with out new SPC tubular lower arms. We`ve altered the stock geometry to work better with increased caster,have additional sway bar end link holes to adjust the sway bar rate and are much more rigid than stock arms with no weight penalty. Most tubular LCAs are 25-30% heavier than stock arms no matter what they claim (scales don`t lie ;) ). They drop ride height 1" and can use SPC spring spacers to adjust the ride height all the way up to + 1/2". You can certainly use them with the Speedway adjusters as well. Our LCAs also come std. with greasable delrin bushings for $548pr. We have them in stock even though our web guys haven`t gotten them up on the site yet."

I know you don't want a drop but you can raise the ride height easlity using spring spacers or adjusters.
