Default 4 Link arms--HELP

I found a site late one night for replacement tubular suspension arms for a 8.8, the lowers could be ordered without spring perches. The uppers could be ordered either adjustable or non adjustable. They also were equiped with grease fittings.
AS I said it was very late & I didn't save the site & can't seem to find it again.

Please, if anybody can direct me to this site I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks, Craig

Craig,
We carry lower without the stock spring perch as in the Steeda/Roush/Saleen/Cobra351/??? for the 8.8 live axle. They do not have the grease fittings, but adjustable PROthane bushed and are a true 5 link setup, at a less than the above priced in dom black powder coated steel, but do not know of a a adjustable link as in the Pro Street Drag racing 4 LINK as you requested.
CHRIS ALSTON and others carry 4 Links that require a different geometry, thus needing their mounting brackets welded to you frame, NOT FOR ROAD/AUTOX/or corner carving.

Craig,

You can make your own up with a combination of rod ends and/or heim joints attached to swedged internally-threaded steel tubes. The heim joint/rod end decision is based on how much "give" you are willing to tolerate for a smooooother ride. About $15.00 for the tube and about $15.00 per end.

Fully adjustable so you can get that perfect pinion angle or wheel base that you've always wanted.

See www.speedwaymotors.com.
