View Full Version : Suspension Replacing Lower Control Arms
I've been thinking about replacing the LCAs with new improved ones (most likely Ed Uding's (http://www.delorean.eu/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=19_28_95&products_id=95034)). The question is, what else should I replace at the same time, in terms of bushings, odds and ends, etc?

If there is nothing "wrong" with your stock LCAs, and you are doing this for preventative measures, may I suggest instead of replacing the LCA, install the Delorean.EU LCA brackets. http://www.delorean.eu/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=95065&osCsid=is8tl6l8k4jtp11qj2gmg9moi3. It would be significantly cheaper.
Installing them on my car was the single biggest improvement I've performed.
(You can order them for less without the bolts/washers, and source the correct ones locally. http://dmctalk.org/showthread.php?9450-Backing-washers-on-Delorean-EU-LCA-brackets

There are other proven braces out there..... mine for example. Several satisfied customers. I'm actually going to be in Ireland the first couple of weeks in October.

Yeah, it's largely for preventative reasons, It's an upgrade I've been thinking of doing for a while. I went over a kerb (albeit at a slow speed) yesterday which I'm sure didn't help them any, so I'm going to take a close look at them tomorrow.
The originals are terribly flimsy looking things, so I'd rather ditch them for something a bit beefier!
I was thinking of getting those brackets at some stage on down the line.
