if you want better a arms..
ars from a 64-64 impala bolt right up! no extending needed... may need to work a lil on the mounting holes.. but they do bolt right in and extend you out a very nice amount!

Yeah they do work nice. I had caprice arms and spindles on my old car and it was great, a straight up bolt on but then I had a friend break a set so if they're not plated and you're doing serioud hopping the same could happen to you. I reccomend plating em especially at the ears if you're going to do that.

I heard about using Caprice arms and spindles but havent seen anybody down here using them on the street. The car i have is different, 4-door cutlass, single pump-10 batteries.

I think it has to be pre 78 caprice arms?
