Default Suspension Setups...

First I want to say that this isn't another 'What spring rates should I run' post.

The car in question is a 94 CX. In the rear is a one piece axle, so that's pretty much taken care of. What we're a little confused about is what to run on the front.

The car is running on 26x10x15" Slicks. I obviously am going to need a set of camber adjustable Upper A-Arms, but what else can I do while I'm at it? Front Control Arms? Ball Joints?

Looking for quality aftermarket parts, price is not an issue.

TIA

The car in question is a 94 CX SFWD car. In the rear is a one piece axle, so that's pretty much taken care of. What we're a little confused about is what to run on the front.

Just get a set of front upper control arms with a adjustable ball joint. Oh yea and a rule NHRA book, cause a solid rear axle and 26x10 don't belong in SFWD car.

i have never had any luck with any aftermarket front lower control arms, eeryone we have ever used have given us issues. your best bet would be to have the front suspension made for your car, there are options out there like the rob moore stuff but that is alot of money. i believe it is around 5g's.
