Summary: Makes a project car safe and ready to roll again. Speedway made it really easy by piecing these kits together and taking all the legwork out of searching for different PNs. I am using Speedways Tubular control arm, so I did some research and opted to purchase the extended length upper balljoints to accommodate for the “steep angle” issues guys are having using this same setup with OEM length ball joints.

Pros: Drives and steers like new Gets your car back to true alignment

Yes, I recommend this product.
