WHAT SAYS "PERFORMANCE" MORE THAN A SET OF TUBULAR CONTROL ARMS! AFTER ALL OF THE TIME AND EFFORT EXPENDED ON YOUR RIDE, YOU DEFINITELY CANNOT LET YOUR STAMPED OEM CONTROL ARMS DETRACT FROM ALL THAT WORK. FINISH YOUR SUSPENSION OFF WITH THESE NEW TUBULAR CONTROL ARM SYSTEMS FROM RIDETECH. BUILT WITH ALL OF THE CARE AND EXPERIENCE YOU HAVE COME TO EXPECT FROM US, THESE TUBULAR CONTROL ARMS ARE A PRECISION ENGINEERED SOLUTION FOR SHOCKWAVE INSTALLATION, BALL JOINT BINDING, AND FRAME CLEARANCE ISSUES THAT CAN HAUNT SOME VEHICLES.

DEVELOPMENT - STRONGARMS ARE DEVELOPED BY RIDETECH IN JASPER, INDIANA ON AN ACTUAL RUNNING, DRIVING VEHICLE. THIS ALLOWS US TO PROPERLY ADDRESS ALL FITMENT AND PERFORMANCE ISSUES. IT ALSO ALLOWS US TO DOCUMENT AN INSTALLATION, DEMONSTRATE THE INSTALLATION TO OUR SALES TECHS AND DEALERS, AND ALLOWS ONGOING EVALUATION OF THE PERFORMANCE OF THE STRONGARMS.

DESIGN - WE THINK THE BEST WAY TO DESIGN ANY COMPONENT IS TO KEEP IT SIMPLE. THAT IS WHY STRONGARMS ARE DESIGNED WITH AS FEW COMPONENTS AS POSSIBLE. WE HAVE A NEW 4 AXIS TUBING BENDER THAT ALLOWS PRECISE, REPEATABLE BENDS THAT NO OTHER MACHINE CAN ACHIEVE. WE CAN CREATE ELEGANT TUBING BENDS THAT WOULD OTHERWISE REQUIRE SEVERAL SEPARATE WELDED COMPONENTS.

COMPONENTS - POWDERCOATED IN A SATIN BLACK FINISH AND COMPLETELY ASSEMBLED WITH BALL JOINTS AND BUSIHNGS. TO REDUCE ALL STICKION FROM THE SUSPENSION MOVEMENT INJECTION MOLDED DELRIN BUSHINGS ARE USED. THESE BUSHINGS ARE ALSO IMPREGNATED WITH TEFLON WHICH ELIMINATES THE NEED FOR LUBRICATION.

GEOMETRY - PROPERLY DESIGNED CONTROL ARMS WILL ADD MORE POSITIVE CASTER (WITHOUT A PILE OF SHIMS) AND WILL POSITION THE WHEEL IN THE WHEEL OPENING FOR MAXIMUM CLEARANCE. BALL JOINT ANGLES ARE RE-POSITIONED TO PREVENT BINDING.
