What specific information are you looking for?

The lower control arm is compatible with coil-springs or an air spring (for the coils we include a billet spring retainer that bolts onto the arm... it can be removed and bags can be used if desired).

On the factory front end we tested, the static castor was 2.6 degrees and through a total of 4 inches of travel (2 inches of compression (bump) and 2 inches of extension (droop) the most castor we saw was a whopping 2.72 degrees.

When running our forward arms, you will gain up to an additional 5 degrees of castor. If that's not enough, we can leave the upper arm in our "standard" dimension and combine it with the lower forward arm, and you will be able to gain another couple degrees.

We sell the arms as a pair, or can seperate them as well.
