No one would pay what I would charge for them . They are very labor intensive. All braces are custom cut and fitted. Then the braces are welded in. The arms are set up on a mill and both the ball joint bores and rear bushing bores are bored out larger. Carbon steel sleeves are made on a lathe and welded in the bushing bores. Then the get powder coated. Then the bushings and ball joints are pressed in. On the plus side I will have very stiff arms that have replaceable NAPA ball joints and Power Flex bushings and won't rub on anything.

I got the Frankenarms installed yesterday. I took it out for a couple of test drives and everything seems ok.
