Need Info. On 2nd Gen. Lower Control Arms

[TEDDYS CAMARO]

I Need To Know What Lower Control Arms To Use On A 2nd Gen. Camaro. I Am Using Speedtech's Upper Control Arms. I Need To Know If There Is Any Drastic Diffrence Between Stock And Aftermarket Lower Control Arms.

If you are going to use coil over shocks the tubular lower arms usually have stronger spring pockets and shock mounts. They are the same length as stock so there is no geometry reason to use them. If your stock arms are questionable, tubular arms are an option.

Can I Use Global West Lower Control Arms With Speed Tech Upper Control Arms? I Am Using Hal Coil Overs On The Front.ALSO, I Wanted To Get Herb Abams Tie Rod Ends. Since They Are Out Of Business, Does Anybody Have Any Other Ideas? What About Guldstrand? Thanks!!

Running the same setup would like to know about lowers other than GW

GW makes their Tracker outer tie rod ends that will adjust your bump steer.

I Think Baer Makes The Tracker Outer Tir Rod Ends, Not Gw. But Thanks For The Info.

[hotrod]

Yes your right. I'm confused as usual.

[David Pozzi]

I doubt you need any special outer tie rod ends, second gen's aren't known for bumpsteer problems. I didnt check my wife's 73 camaro but just drove it in an open track at Buttonwillow last weekend and the steering was great.

We have Global West upper arms, stock lower arms, Delrin bushings with Hotchkis springs and anti-roll bars. We have the Hotchkis tie rod adjuster sleeves.
I wouldn't use a Rod end for steering unless there was no other way. they are expensive and won't last as long as a stock type tie rod end.
