Better Launches. When mashing the gas off the line, your weak stock upper control arms can keep your Pony from staying pointed straight down the track. A pair of Steeda's Aluminum rear upper control arms will stiffen up your Mustang's rear end and keep it planted for faster, straighter launches.

Improves Handling. The design of your stock upper control arms can unpredictable changes in handling. Unlike your OEM setup, Steeda's control arms are designed to eliminate suspension bind problems. The result? Race-worthy traction and control even on the most challenging corners.

Lightweight Aluminum. Unlike other aftermarket arms that are made of steel, Steeda's super strong and lightweight aluminum arms are 25% lighter than OEM arms and are less than a third the weight of other aftermarket steel designs. They are heat treated and TIG welded for maximum strength, and reduce undesirable unsprung weight for improved handling.

Exclusive 3-Part Bushing. Steeda's exclusive 3-part, 2-phase bushing design is designed to give you racecar-like handling with a streetcar worthy ride. This unique bushing design also won't damage your upper torque box like arms with solid bushings.

Ideal for Lowered 'Stangs. Lowering your Mustang can upset your suspenion's geometry, making for a rough ride or bad handling. Bolting on a pair of Steeda's upper rear control arms will get things lined back up for hassle-free performance and style.

Application. These Steeda Aluminum Rear Upper Control Arms are designed to be a bolt-on installation on most 1979 to 2004 Mustangs. Note they will not fit the 99-04 Cobra and will not fit 97 1/2 to 98 models. Sold as a pair.

Technical Notes. Does not fit 99-04 Cobra; also will not fit 97 1/2-98 Mustangs. 97 1/2 to 98 Mustangs must use this adjustable upper arm instead due to unique control arm length.

    In conjunction with Steeda's lower control arms get yourself a new car. I worked hard to install them alone with my two jacks but I'm so happy with the result.

    I cracked my stock rear upper left control just about in half needed replacements. These ride very well and they do help plant your car to the pavement. One caution if installing yourself the bushings are very difficult to remove they will not just fall out like the instructions say we tried every thing from a paddle bit to a blow torch only to find a hole saw worked the best. But as always american muscle paid for shipping and they were delivered in 3 days
