Our first objective with our version of these a-arms was to
improve strength and durability without sacrificing rigidity to
keep these race-bred machines at the front of the pack. Our design
changes still retain all stock suspension geometry yet have been
improved structurally to eliminate potential breakage points. We've
also eliminated slop at the hinge pins and caster blocks. Our
box-stock B44.2FT came with hinge pin holes with .005" (.13mm) of
clearance in each hinge pin hole! That's a total of .01" (.26mm) of
slop (inside and outside hinge pins combined) before the vehicle
ever ran! By tightening up these "loose" areas with our A-arms, the
B44's camber, caster and toe angles are locked in place while
improving suspension performance and consistency at the same
time.
We also found that the stock anti-sway bar pivot balls molded in
the A-arms are .005" (.13mm) undersized. That leads to inadequate
performance of the sway-bar system. We rectified that by
eliminating the molded ball entirely and replaced it with a more
stout, machined pivot ball (not included - see ''tech note''
below), with closer tolerances on the ball diameter.
Each RPM A-arm for the B44 is molded in black and comes with our
limited lifetime warranty against breakage. When performance counts
and the goal is to get across the finish line, you can count on RPM
to get you there!
Tech Notes: RPM A-arms for the B44 fit the B44,
B44.1 & B44.2. Individuals wanting to run a sway bar system
must use any standard 4.3mm ball stud such as Associated #6276. We
recommend Associated balls studs for the most consistent diameter
but any 4.3mm ball stud with a 4-40 x ¼'' thread will
work.
