B&B Front A-Arm Lengths

[sirelesar]

Can anyone tell me the length of the front upper and lower A-arms for the B&B Coil-Over setup? I bougt after-market arms and want to make sure they are not too long. It seems that my tires stick out a little too far and rub, and the backspacing is supposed to be right on. If you could, measure perpindicular from the center of pivot at the frame connection to the center of the ball joint.

If they are the same size as the B$B's, is there a shorter A-arm assembly available to get better clearances?

Thanks,
Darren

I don't know if you have solved your problem yet, but if you are using Mustang II parts, Speedway Motors in Nebraska makes 1" shorter arms. I agree with you on the part about the front wheels "sticking out" - it makes the car stick out as a kit.

I should be getting mine in 2-3 weeks. If the shorter arms don't work, I will have a chance to see how much work it is to move the control arm mounts (pivots) inwards a bit.

I spoke with Bryan Anderson of B&B this morning. The A-Arms they sell are 5/8" shorter. That seems to help the problem quite a bit. I am going with the shorter a-arms.
Thanks for the response. Good luck,
Darren
