Lower Control Arms

Hey,

I am looking at getting a set of coilovers within the month and I am thinking at the same time i should get some LCA(rear) whilst I'm at it.

Anyone able to advise a brand, that can be picked up in Australia?

Budget would be around $500ish. (but happy to explore all options)

Import from the US. I'd look at the F7 and SPC as cheap(er) options if it's for function not form. SPC has good reviews. Get them drop shipped or find a vendor who will ship internationally.

No I havnt yet I've been slack, got a heap of parts I need to put on but can't afford to have the car off the road as it's my only mode of transport but working on another.

If you can find pics of them complete they should be able to replicate? Or ask the company to send you some pics or a how too but I don't see how a mechanical shop can't work out how they go??
