The competition springs cause the car to have a slightly lower the center of gravity and the competition springs are a stiffer spring,...

This is a the economy version of our lower control arm assembly, with a spot welded on reinforcing plate. We are sorry, but we just cannot recommend this part. The Scott Drake premium version of this lower control arm is superior and costs less.
