Default Re: Christmas came early

Hey, hey.......Metco stuff! You've made a very fine selection of rear suspension components. That's top-of-the-line quality right there. I actually removed a complete Hotchkiss rear suspension from my 9-second Drag Radial Malibu and replaced everything with Metco control arms just like yours. Now you oughta compliment these nicely with a set of QA1 rear adjustable shocks and a nice rear sway bar. Oh yeah, you also need to purchase a set of control bracket braces that triangulate the rear frame brackets. Many different companies manufacture them and they are readily available in the Summit/Jegs catalogs. Trust me......these braces are a must have and simply bolt in at the same time you install the control arms. Once you get these things installed, PM me and I'll give you some great advice on setting pre-load. Again......great choice!
