control arms

Where is good place to buy drop control arms, I am leaning towards Western chassis one over the djm ones?  Wanting to go with 2quot; ones.  Will i have any problems running 2quot; drop arms and 2quot; drop coils, like steering, ball joints and etc?

.The best place to buy Western Chassis stuff is from Sport Truck Direct in Phoenix Az. The only problem you will have with the springs and control arms is that if you want to run the stock wheel and tire, they will hit the inner wheel well when you hit a bump. You will probably have alignment problems also. More than likely not able to get proper amount of neg camber.

.I had 2quot; lowering springs (although I think they must have been the wrong spring, as they DEFINITELY lowered it around 3quot;) I took it to 3 different shops, and the best I could get was -1.3L -1.4R camber. The wheels were slanted inwards, and within a month i could see my tires wearing unevenly.

I got my hands on some Western Chassis 2quot; drop control arms and some R/T springs, took it to the shop and got it right into spec.

....you could oblong the holes in the control arm support bar...maybe a tenth of an inch or so on each hole to try out....yeah yeah...some may frown on that remark...but i have seen people to alot worse.
