Raised upper control arms?

[Bagged_96]

havnt started mine yet but helped a few use 2x2 square tubing...1/4 inch thick but cut the existing mounts as close and level as possible. then make a spacer and welded original mounts to the top. the spacer height is up to you im personaly going with 2"-2 1/2" tall spacer when i do mine. just make sure to mark the angle and placement of the mounts when they are removed.

i've never heard of "raising control arms" to defeat camber. is this something new?

i need negative camber to clear the wide wheels when i air out

Never seen it done on an OBS truck, it is done a lot on the NBS trucks though.

its a pain in the butt to do on the obs but if done right it helps a ton with camber. but it all depends on wheel back spacing or wheel placement if it can be done. ive only seen guys tring to lay out on 22s and bigger do it though.

Why not get a set of control arms like from MMW?

I narrows my lowers and upper 2 inches and 1/2 more on lowers. Raise uppers it must the arms parallel. Causes them to shove in and out instead of cambers. It basically sucks the wheel in cause it binds up stuff I think
