Maximum Motorsports Extreme-Duty series Adjustable Rear Lower Control Arms for the 1979-1998 Mustang improve traction and handling by reducing the unwanted deflection allowed by the stock soft rubber bushings and flexible stamped steel control arm.
Spherical bearings at both ends of this control arm eliminate the deflection that can cause wheel hop, yet also allow the articulation required for proper handling.
Adjustable ride height lets you change your Mustang's instant center location to tune the anti-squat percentage for optimum traction.
Fits 1979-1998 Mustang with solid rear axle. Includes spring perch and swaybar mount.
Well suited for Mustangs:
With up to 600 HP
That are launched hard from a standing start, meaning a drag race style start from a dead stop, whether on the street or at the strip
Why should I use the Extreme-Duty control arms instead of the Heavy-Duty series?
Mustangs with over 400 rwhp, and even those with less power that are launched hard from a standing start, may overload urethane bushings, leading to premature failure of the bushing. When you hit your Mustang's throttle pedal, all of the forces accelerating your car pass from the rear axle housing through the lower control arms and their bushings; that's what moves your Mustang forward. The harder the car accelerates on launch, the greater the forces on the lower control arm bushings. Higher forces lead to a shorter lifespan of urethane bushings. The oversized spherical bearings used in the MM Extreme-Duty adjustable ride height control arms are robust enough for a Mustang with 600 HP launching on slicks.
