Lower Control Arms!!!

jcoxtitan · 05-06-2008, 06:19 PM

Hey I was wondering does anybody know where I could find a set of extended lower control arms, and buy just them without all the other stuff like comes in a fabtech lift?

I think fabtech still makes ext beams.

What are you going to do with ext lowers and stock uppers?

I thought the fabtech lifts came with extended lowers and I want the lowers to coplement the total chaos uppers, I'm not going to use stock uppers but total chaos uppers, coilovers, and spindles, with lower arms for maximum lift and the best ride.

There are no extended lower control arms out there by any of the lift companies for a titan that I know of, plus you wouldnt need them for what you plan on doing. i do believe, however, that gregs MT kit uses extended lowers but also a different UCA. NCD does as well i guess for their LT kit and apparently camburg does for their LT kit (i assume??)

That would give you a crapload of camber. Bad idea.

The top of the tire would be leaning waaaay in as compared to the bottom of the tire.

TC UCAs aren't extended, I think that's where you're confused and think you need extended lowers

and the rare CST LT kit... don't know if camburg is making the LT kit anymore although i've seen a set at Kartech displayed up above the display cases. well, maybe they still are...

Do yourself a favor and talk with an expert and stop going with your own ideas.

ok thanks i just new to the titan and didnt know that the total chaos werent extended i thought they were and that got me mixed up thanks for clearing everything up. I'll just go withh the coilovers, coilover spacer, uca, and spindles in that order. Would it be a problem lifting the truck in that sequence or not?
