Control arm measurements needed

You had him shorten the control arms an inch? #-o

I truly hope this is a 1/4 mile car only. As in, the car is never taken on the streets for any reason whatsoever. Because just shortening the control arms an inch without regard to the suspension geometry is just, well, I can't even type anything on here that's appropriate.

Sounds like you need to talk to HemiDenny. K frame and suspension fabrication is not something to be taken lightly.

As for the original measurements, the LCA is 12.875" from the center of the torsion bar pivot to the center of the lower ball joint taper.

Thank you for the measurement would you happen to have the UCA measurement.

What I asked him for was to move the wheels in an inch and i'm not sure what he did so that's why I want the measurements to find out what's what .

The car drove great on the street and hwy. and went nice and straight at the track , it had no bad habit's , only bad part about it was the broken weld and the design of how the LCA mount was on to the K member , very not safe I will take pictures today and post them .
