Many of you have done this already so this is nothing new other than I couldnt find one place that gave any details about this mod so i figured i would write something up to help others out. This is a VERY simple mod that will beef up your rear control arms. As I understand it, they have a tendency to bend when bashing them on rocks. This makes plenty of since due to the weight of our rigs. I dont claim to be an expert on this, but I would think this mod should make them close to bullet proof.
Attached is a picture of one of the control arms finished up. I pulled the control arm, welded in the steel, cleaned it all up, primed and painted and reinstalled the control arm all in about 30 minutes.
When I do the drivers side in the next day or so, I will take step by step pictures including how to remove your rear control arm and update this post.
oh ya.. this mod only cost $14.00
