Raw Metal Control Arm Kits are shipped un assembled, except for the Jeebus Joint which we install into the control arm standard.  Powder Coated arms will no longer ship with the lower ball joint pressed, it has caused too many shipping issues, the rest will be assembled.  Arms are made custom to your spec, so let me know if you need any changes. The 97-03 kit also requires you to purchase an additional RH18mm inner tie rod end, typically 15-20$ on amazon, so the steering can be converted to true RH/LH turnbuckle assembly.
 
If you have any questions or concerns at all, please feel free to email us whenever you like : Info@michiganmetalworks.com

This kit will allow you to lay previously difficult 97-03 F-150 truck out with ease,  and retain full drive ability with the kit, with MINIMAL bump steer.  Gone is the excessive camber that these trucks had previously been associated with, with the MMW kit you gain real drive ability, with minimal camber changes and minimal bump steer.   As with any custom suspension it is reqired to be installed WITH shocks, the lower mounts are built into the control arm, and we give you the upper shock mount with the kit, Please for the love of kidneys, install shocks, please!  Lower shock mount may require you to pocket frame for the shock body and bracket, it will depend on what frame profile you have.  The kit narrows the front track width a total of 2" up front, and moved forward 1",  giving plenty of clearance for turning and driving low.  Necessary trimming of steering linkage necessary to accomidate track width adjustments.  The overall rim and tire size of your choosing will determine which spindle you will be best suited with, for most applications the stock spindle is the best choice, but for larger sized wheel tire combos, a drop spindle is also acceptable.  For kits that are needing more then 2" narrow, please email us for details.  If you plan to run 24 or 26" wheels please note your tire size on the check out page order info, so we can set the arm up properly for you, without this, we will set the arm up with the default angles and clearances for 22x10.  

When you choose for the arms to be powder coated, you also are getting billet jeebus joint covers as well that will be milled with the "M" logo, all in the same price!  This option makes for an extremely unique control arm that absolutely nobody besides MMW can offer!  We offer these in tubular or flate plate constuction, both are identical in performance, so please make your choice on the check out page, if not specified we will ship first availble.  Tubular arms come with loose shock tabs, for you to weld in place in your desired location.

Choosing the budget version, changes your Jeebus Joint upper arms to a regular ball joint upper arm.  It limits your wheel size to a 24, but saves you 200$!
