TUBULAR UPPER
CONTROL ARMS
The Detroit Speed control arm kit is a complete and comprehensive package. DSE
has done all the engineering and testing, and supplies all parts needed
to complete the installation. All you will need to do is follow the
instructions and supply the grease. Installation should take less than
one day and should be followed by a professional alignment.
The Detroit Speed upper control arm kit is a bolt on
enhancement for 1970-1981 Camaros / Firebirds.
Suspension geometry is improved over stock by increasing camber gain and
improving roll camber. They also increase caster for improved ride and
handling. DSE's upper control arms have been computer
modeled and the components have undergone finite element analysis. The
control arms have CNC stainless steel cross shafts which incorporate
DSE's 'Caster Tuner Bushings'. These aluminum bushings adjust caster by
moving the upper control arm fore/aft for more or less caster without
adding alignment shims. This unique caster adjustment design is
engineered to be precise and permanent. The upper control arms also
utilize DSE designed bushings. These greaseable aluminum / Delrin bushings
have an increased stiffness over stock. This provides more consistent
and precise handling. The bushings also have CNC machined bevel
stainless washers and stainless ny-lock nuts.
The upper control arms have CNC machined tube ends for precision fits.
The arms are then TIG welded in a fixture for accuracy and repeatability
of geometry. The ball joint pocket is CNC machined from billet for
increased strength. The arms are powder coated gloss black and come
assembled with ball joints. Two sets of 'Caster Tuner Bushings' are
included. The Detroit Speed and Engineering upper control arms are ready
to bolt on!
