Default New Product: Rblt upper A arms 86-95

We just got in a sample from a new supplier and it is unbelievable. The quality and attention to detail is incredible. These pictures hardly do it justice. We hope to have a good supply to make available in about 4 weeks. The price is $395 exchange.

Very nice!

Is there a possibility of either only rebuilding the ball joint or to sell a kit for only the ball joint. The only reason I’m asking is cause I have a set of urethane bushings in the upper A arms.

Sorry but that is not a possibility.

How does he repair the arm after it has been removed with a pickle fork? Most don't have the proper tool to remove it from the spindle.

The core charge is high at $200. We need to make sure we get as many possible back. You'd be amazed at how many people do not return the cores.

I did not ask how he did it. I figured it was propriatry information as nobody in this country has figured out how to do it.

Ok, I'm going to visit a local european salvage yard. They have at least 6 S4 chassis back there. I'll see what I can get the control arms for.

I'd be happy to trade if you can get some.

Mark,

What I meant to ask is, if he will reject any cores with damaged lower lips, as they can be easily damaged using a pickle fork. The lower lip is what the rubber boot slips over.

John's comment is a good one. Track tested would be a good statement of quality.

I held this A-arm in my hand today and looked very, very carefully at it. Here's a statement of quality:

This thing is unbelievable. It might as well be a new arm. The rubber bushings are all new...I have no idea how they got them. The ball joint installation is so good, it is hard to tell how they did it. I gave Mark all my cores to have arms done for me. I'm sick of buying new arms or looking for a "good used" arm with 100,000 miles on it. This is the real thing.
