🔥 Suspension Upgrade... But Do Upper Control Arms Really Matter? 🔥
We're about to find out.
This customer received an Old Man Emu MT64 suspension upgrade, parabolic rear leaf springs, and airbags. We then sent them away for 2 weeks before fitting OME upper control arms and completing a second wheel alignment.
From a tyre and alignment perspective, lifting an IFS 4WD changes the suspension geometry. While we can align the vehicle after the lift, factory upper control arms can limit the amount of caster and camber adjustment available. Upper control arms help bring these alignment angles back into specification, improving steering feel, straight-line tracking and potentially reducing uneven tyre wear.
Now we're waiting on the customer's real-world feedback on the difference before and after the upper control arms were fitted.
No sales pitch. No guessing. Just genuine testing and honest feedback.
Stay tuned! 🚙💨
