A-body rear lca question
Just wondering if anyone has a set of Edelbrock or Hotchkis rear lower control arms for a 64-72 GM A-body that they could measure for me? I would like to know what size rectangular tubing they use to make them. Thanks, George

dont know what rect tubing they use, but i just used 1.5" .120 for my lowers and 1.25 .120 for my uppers. this was all 1020 dom though. you may be able to find the equivalent in rect.

Thanks, What size material did you use for the bushing ends or did you go solid? Thanks, George

i used tube adapters and johnny joints. i wanted a spherical with some nvh dampening.
were you wondering size for strength, or something else?
