yeah $550...no thanks. look good though

socal50 12-01-2011 01:34 AM

Yea but they will last longer then the truck

027lug 12-01-2011 01:51 AM

I have no doubt in my mind what these arms are capable of and what torture they can take and I'm not saying there not worth it, $550 just inst in my budget. Maybe in the future...

jakez 12-01-2011 02:03 AM

oh yeah they look great and with the uniball is really nice but i just cant seeing my self spend that for just two uppers. uppers and lowers i would buy some

socal50 12-01-2011 09:58 AM

He's actually gunna start the lower arms but you would have to run coil overs. Basically a mid travel kit

socal50 12-01-2011 09:59 AM

And what do u guys think is a fair price for this arms

jakez 12-01-2011 10:02 AM

see if he makes a mid travel...im down for getting one.

Mid travel is in the works he needs to find a lower arm for mock up and the kit would be 3" over stock

027lug 12-01-2011 06:37 PM

I think your buddy's upper and lower arms combined with a 4" lift and some SAW coil overs would make a nice medium budget setup for my terrain, I would be interested in ditching my torsion bars, would this setup use a upper shock hoop?

socal50 12-01-2011 06:46 PM

Yea it would need a shock hoop but it would need to be welded in not bolt on

027lug 12-01-2011 07:02 PM

Will the hoop come with the kit?

socal50 12-01-2011 07:09 PM

Well yea if u do the conversion I'd have to ask about the pricing on that

socal50 12-01-2011 08:03 PM

It's around $1300 for uppers and lower arms

mid travel? and only a arms?

socal50 12-01-2011 10:42 PM

Yea that is a mid travel and lower arms are boxed

027lug 12-01-2011 10:47 PM

if its $1300 for uppers, lowers, and shock hoops i'd be interested, It will be quite some time before funds would allow it but the kit would be on my to buy list

Will it be a coilover conversion for the mid travel or will you keep your torsions? I was gonna save for a lift but this has me more interested!:thumbsup:

Upper arm lower boxed arm and a shock hoop or if u wanna spend a lil more u can get an engine cage and the coil overs u would have to supply

Any idea if it will require longer cv's or sway bar link etc?

socal50 01-30-2012 03:28 PM

Well with coil overs u don't really need sway bars and I believe u need longer cv axles but we can cut a sleeve them and there still strong
