BMR Upper Control Arms Spherical for Buick Grand National & Chevrolet Monte Carlo (1978-1987)
Get ready to take your 1978-1987 GM G-body to the next level! The BMR Upper Control Arms are designed to help you launch harder, reduce wheel hop, and achieve consistent cornering. Say goodbye to the limitations of stock control arms that just can’t keep up!
Why Choose BMR Control Arms?

BMR’s polyurethane, on-car adjustable tubular control arms (part number UTCA016) are made from heavy-duty 1 5/8 inch, 0.20120-inch wall DOM steel tubing. This means you get a robust upgrade that significantly enhances your vehicle's performance.
