New On-Car Adjustable Poly/Poly LCA's From Founders Performance

We have finally released our on-car adjustable turnbuckle style lower control arms. A few of the key features that make ours different is on the short adjustment side we don't use a weld bung but rather we made a one piece tube with thread for less welding. Our turnbuckle is also the only one made using forged 4340 alloy steel, rolled threaded (not cut), and then heat treated to the same strength as a qa1 or fk xm series rod end for superior strength.



MADE IN THE USA!

Founders Performance On Car Adjustable Lower Control Arms Poly/Poly

1982-2002 Camaro or Firebird Adjustable Lower Control Arms

ONLY $142.65


Replace those weak, factory stamped lower control arms with Founders Performance hevy duty tubular on car adjustable arms. These are a direct bolt-on replacement that minimize wheel hop, improve cornering, lowers ET's and greatly help your track consistency. Founders Performance control arms are constructed from U.S. made DOM steel tubing 1.250” OD x 0.095” wall, 1045 steel threaded tube adaptors (stronger than chrome-moly), completely CNC machined and fully pulse welded for outstanding strength. Founders control arms also feature easy adjustment using a super high strength 4340 alloy steel turnbuckle that has been heat treated to the same strength as most QA1, FK, or Aurora alloy steel rod ends for superior strength over any other brand turnbuckle on the market. Founders also doesn't cut the threads like our competition but we choose to roll our threads just like rod ends and high quality arp hardware.

Control Arm Features:

1.25” x 0.095” DOM Steel Tubing.
1045 Steel Threaded Tube Adaptor (stronger than chrome-moly).
High Strength Chrome-Moly ¾” heat treated plated turnbuckle.
High Frequency Pulse Welded Construction with Rosette Welds on the Bung Side for Extra Strength.
CNC Machined bushings sleeves with Proper 12MM ID (not 1/2") for use with Factory Bolt.
Standard Red or Black Powder Coating for a Great Looking Long Lasting Finish.
Improves Responsiveness and Control.
MADE IN THE USA!

Those look nice! I already have your non- adjustable LCA's. when will founders make a "wonder bar" and Strut Tower Brace (STB) to complement all these other items?

Re: New On-Car Adjustable Poly/Poly LCA's From Founders Performance

We have thought about a wonder bar but we are not sure if the volume would be enough to justify making them. The factory bars appear all over Ebay and an aftermarket one isn't going to do much of anything different. At this time we recommend the TDS part if anybody is looking at them. We have never seen one in person but they look to be the best aftermarket option out based on photos.

What about the strut tower brace, I was wondering why you sell one for 4th gens but not for 3rd gens..?
