QA1 Control Arms?
 
Anyone have any experience with QA1 control arms? Namely the tubular GM parts? It seems they bought the Edelbrock suspension line and now sell these. We have a customer wondering about build quality, fit, country of origin, etc.

Thanks!

Going to answer my own question here -

I called QA1, learned that the street version is a stock ball joint with polyurethane bushings, and the race version is a delrin bushing with their low-friction ball joint. Both versions retain same geometry.

All the arms come with coil-over mounts installed, with an optional stock coil spring mount available for around $69 retail.

These are all made in Minnesota.

So there I have it!

MN is USA, that's what I wanted to know.

just throwing this out there.....

To be considered made in USA more than 50% of the cost needs to be American. SO that could mean some components are from overseas and assembled here.....
