    Stock rear control arms?

    I'm in another project mood. Anyone have some stock rear control arms I could buy/borrow? I was thinking about making a set of stainless tubular control arms and polishing them for a little bling. I know...stainless isn't as strong or as light as chrome moly. But it's easy to work with and polishes well. Anyways this is more for a little fun and a little welding project.

    Would this just be a "bling" factor, or would they do some handling good like the Metco's/Zack's arms?

    Bling factor mostly. Mabey a little better than stock. More than anything is a reason to weld.

    I kinda need a straight set. I was going to use them as a fixture to hold the new end tubes while I tack them. If I can't get a set I'll just make a fixture from some scrap steel.
