Upper control arms on VN Diff aftermarket or factory?

[Bz Kn33z]

Has any1 every seen the upper control arms on a live axel VN V6 diff how they are kinda small and flimsy, i seen a vn at the wreckers that had 2inch squar upper controll arms with new bushes, would this make the handleing better on the old vn?

You talking about trailing arms i'm guessing? their main purpose is to stop forward and back movement of the diff if I'm correct.

standard upper control arms are pressed steel and they look like crap, but they're deceptively strong. you could box them along with the lower control arms, i've also seen adjustable one so you can dial in your pinion angle.

I'd be more worried about where they mount on the chassis breaking than the arms themselves. Be Kneez if your bushes are pretty flogged then itd be worth grabbing these from the wreckers

Mine look like they have been replaced they are red and look in good nick. but these ones at the wreckers where different and i havnt seen them on any other cars so its just weird.
