Great question Mike. Yes you can order high clearance arms separately.

The high clearance arms are a fantastic piece that make decent room for wide front meats. They're CNC formed, TIG welded, designed with enhanced geometry, and are 100% made in the USA.

One thing to keep in mind is that they are designed around the ATS tall spindle for a total transformation in fit and geometry. They will not work with a stock height spindle on a factory sub frame.

Give us a call at 435-628-4300 and we can go over what it would take to get them on your Nova.

BTW, I'm a big Nova fan, I've got a couple of my own. Have you got pics of yours on the forum?

Let me clarify one other item- If you are running a Speedtech front sub frame, there is additional adjustment built in to the control arm mounting points so that you can use a stock spindle with the high clearance arms and still maintain correct geometry.

It was nice to chat with you Mike. Congrats on grabbing the kit, I'm sure you'll be happy with it. We're available if you have any further questions.

Now, how about some pics?? Once you get the parts in, if you do snap some nice pics I'll be glad to post them up on our facebook page.

Ben, as i'm doing my front and rear end research now, the one question i currently have is, what do you know about the maximum tire size/offset i can use in the front? i'm only trying to accomplish a 275 up front, and changing to forgeline rims...

Plus the steering box....

thanx, Mike

On what year car Mike?
the best combo we have seen to date is to use the AFX spindle (tall) and the high Clearance upper control arms. One Lap ran that setup with 275 on the front of the 67 for years. 18x 9or 9.5 with a 6 3/8 bs if I remember correctly

Good thing I asked!!! EH
so with the Streetfighter front combo a 18 x 10 is easy when using the high clearance upper control arms, and special sway bar we designed. and a 285/295. you could run a 9 with the standard control arm and a 275 just have to watch the rim contact with the upper arm and sway bar at full turn it will be close.
