The UMI Performance 303233-B is a complete front upper and lower tubular A-arm kit engineered to replace worn, stamped factory control arms with high-strength, precision-built components. Shipped fully assembled and ready for installation, this bolt-on kit delivers measurable improvements in steering feel, handling precision, and suspension consistency for both street and track use — all while saving approximately 8 lbs over the factory A-arm set.
The lower A-arms are constructed from TIG-welded DOM tubing and feature greaseable, UMI-designed and manufactured Delrin bushings for precise handling and smooth suspension motion. The ball joint mounting location is angled slightly from stock to accommodate lowered vehicles while also providing additional wheel and tire clearance. Upper A-arms are assembled with the same low-deflection Delrin bushings alongside billet 4140 chromoly cross shafts that are CNC machined and zinc plated for durability. The upper ball joint mounting pad is relocated to increase caster without the need for excessive shims, resulting in improved steering feel and response.
Both upper and lower A-arms are jig-built for precision accuracy and TIG welded at all critical areas for superior strength and a clean appearance. All CNC machined ball joint holders and tubing radii ensure consistent geometry every time. The kit comes pre-installed with premium ball joints and polyurethane bump stops in both the upper and lower A-arms.
