Hey guys, just picked up my car with the new Metco control arms. All I can say is ...... no words come to mind that I could type here. Let's just say I took an exit ramp as hard as one could take one, I came in high and went out low just to see if I could get the beast to break loose, no dice. FLAT, FLAT, FLAT. Next to the Trilogy #103, best investment yet. Allright, maybe the Nittos, Baer brakes, various gauges, and all of the other stuff are just as good, but I believe this is a major safety mod. I felt so safe at high speeds in the car! Also, had Carfixer's alignment specs done as well. To say it is like driving on rails is an understatement. If it was not for all of you on this site, I would still be driving the "old man's car" Thanks to all who contribute here. On to the next mod!!!:o P.S. this is not a contest, but the first PM I get will get the control arms. Free shipping as well! I will be off the site for an hour or two, so I will check back later. Take care, Bob.

Hey guys, thanks for the response, but my OEM control arms have been spoken for. Feel free to contribute any comments about upgraded control arms. After driving my MM hard for about 3 hours after the Metco control arms were installed, I would suggest this mod not only as a performance upgrade, but as a safety one as well. Just my .02 "Carry On!"

Hey Bob,
What do those things run? I am interested but the T\C has to go in first. I may need a set of those seeing there is a partictiular strip of road back home, a beautiful tight "S" that screams to be taken hard. The last time through, I took the first at double the posted limit, and the back side at about the same. I rolled on the throttle to hard and brought the end around but all the way through the turn it was all to the good.

William, great to hear from you. Plan on $450.00 or so. I cannot give you a direct quote. Make sure you have Carfixer's front end alignment to go along with it. I took an offramp at about 110 mph with a little brake, and at no time did I feel nervous. My beloved MM was on rails! YOU MUST HAVE THIS UPGRADE!!!
