Advantages of aftermarket upper:lower control arms

TheContractorDude said

Thanks for the input. I will round out the bottom of the cut, since I am still at that stage of the build. However, there is still a slight return at the top of the cut. I really didn't have to cut much at the top. My control arm support looked somewhat different from the one shown in your photo.

Sounds good!

Yeah they all look a little different. I’ve seen some with lots of extra material there and some with very little at all, both clearly being unmodified. I don’t think Ma mopar was too worried about exactly how much of that mounting tab was folded over and welded. At least not until they issued a TSB about them cracking. There’s a factory fix/gusset that was prescribed for cars that developed cracks in that area.
