CowboyBanshee Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 Has anyone done an A-arm conversion...my 87 with J-arms is a excellent runner, and I would like to update it a bit...but I cant seem to find anything more than word of mouth about it...

SuperChris Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 Do you bend your J arms? I only did the conversion because I kept bending J arms. If you do it, it's gonna add some weight, cost a bunch of money, and handle the same. If you do, be sure to make a bunch of gussets and weld them on good. Mine came apart and ruined a new set of shocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PUSH THE THROTTLE Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 My recommended conversion $550 from the local stealer. Elka Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperChris Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 That would have been cheaper for me in the long run after replacing all the A arms and shocks I bent before figuring out I needed so many gussets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
