Flipping the script. Looking at Moog upper & lower control arms at rear.

Figure the original bushings are done by now (137k miles) and I won't be supercharging or anything. All good.
I think you should go with Spohn boxed lowers so I can see if they're worth it lol.

Are these and the panhard bar a must have for the 2/4 drop?
If you're doing a 4" drop in the rear you'll probably want the adjustable control arms. I'm dropped 3" but I think because mines a Denali the body moldings around the wheels for some reason helps the wheels look more centered front to back. At a 3" drop they're close to center. But at a 4" drop, especially on a non- Denali, they will probably look like they're pulled way forward. And to the right, so yes I'd recommend the adjustable panhard bar too. I'm going supercharged so I'm looking to stiffen things up, that's why I'm looking at the boxed lower control arms.

What do you mean by Boxed?
The ones I've seen are made of tubing.
Here's a little review, towards the end of the video, its only 2+ minutes long.

What are you using if those keep breaking on you? Thanks!

67RS427,

I need to go edit that post, its a bit misleading. That is not my Tahoe, wish it was though, hah.

Oh g-d Tony, I'm sorry. That was not my ride (I wish it was, 700hp sounds good to me, haha).
It just so happen to have info on the arms ubervic was inquiring about.

I believe he had custom arms made, he says it in the video.
