PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Today’s Pro Touring A-bodies are now able to handle better than ever before thanks to UMI’s new adjustable upper a-arm. This a-arm features a ½” taller upper ball joint that improves the camber curve, resulting in increased front end grip. Additionally, the advanced design of the a-arm relocates the ball joint plate rearward for enhanced caster and improved steering feel. The UMI adjustable upper a-arm is constructed with a machined CrMo cross shaft that holds two precision rod ends for easy adjustment. TIG welded to the laser cut ball joint pad which houses the taller upper ball joint, this a-arm also includes a laser cut bump stop brace for added durability. The 4056-2 a-arm is designed to work with factory height spindles and increases spindle height by ½”. Available in red or black powder coat finish, each set is hand-built in Philipsburg, PA using US materials. The Upper a-arm hardware kit (Part # 4003) includes 7/16” Grade 8 bolts, washers, and nylock nuts needed to mount the UMI Performance A-Arms to your vehicle.

Fitment Note: UMI 4056-2 upper a-arm is recommended for use with lowered cars. We do not recommend using this a-arm with cargo coils or above stock height cars, as the bump stop may contact the cross brace. Additionally, UMI is not responsible for fitment issues that may arise from using incompatible components.
