Looking into Spohn, UMI, a arms.

Don't plan on lowering, though I might at some point. Planning to autocross sometime as well.

Can I ge away with my stock a arms with del a Lum bushings?

Or do I go with aftermarket a arms?

Thanks!
Chuck

 

I autoX and I run stock a arms with delalums. No complaints. I painted the a arms and spindles with POR15. From what I've read the tubular arms only cut weight. So if you're going for "every pound counts" I'd say go for it otherwise I would just use stock a arms. Your wallet will be happier too!

 

Stock with Del-alum works well for me.

 

Thanks guys!

 

If you do decide aftermarket I recommend Delrin bushings for better articulation since you are looking at autox. Hope that helps.

 

One thing to keep in mind some people have issues with using some of the aftermarket a arms with the stock k member.

There are a few Spohn review threads on here with reports of tires positions being off centered in the fender well.

If you're not going to a full coil over or an aftermarket K member there isn't much of a benefict in going to aftermarket a arms. The stock ones are extremely stout pieces.
