Bending the a-arms or anchor points is something else

I'll tell ya the number 1 thing I've learned.... that there's so much more to it than just buying parts. For me it's like guys that just buy parts for their motors... and they can spout numbers and parts numbers and all manor of useless knowledge that's like reading an encyclopedia... and then you go out and spank em like a bad child with a motor that's smaller and makes less power. At that point - I don't really care how much they know or think they know.

I'll let 'em go back to the pits and tell someone else how bad ass their car is and how many kool parts they have. I'll sit on my ass and have another water and relax.
