A1 racing suspension parts???

Has anyone dealt with these parts before?

They offer some traction arms, toe links and end links. There are no pics of the end links or toe links but I was wondering if anyone else has tried them?
Thanks,

not dealt with them but well done for finding it

Brian: The arms look much like what one of the guys on the prehack SM had made sorry I can't remember his username.

There was a big debate about the strength and cost of them (no surprise there).

I don't remember his name either, but I think he was involved with making the ones on that site.
As I remember, the general concensus was that they were better than stock.

Price doesn't seem far off, the other ones available were $250 at one point. I emailed the company to try and find out about the endlinks. I used to have the ST part list a few years back but a hard drive crash lost it before I ordered the parts.

I beleive these are the arms Adam Hintgen (Dr. Jonez) has/is putting on his car. He sold me his stock arms because he was getting these I beleive. That was a while ago, he probably has them on by now. Shoot him a PM.

These are the same ones Tom was involved with (terrible to4e/trainwreck)

This is the guy that was selling them. Never got anything off them but wanted to. I called them but they had not gotten back to me. Been a few months .. I will call again tomorrow and see what happens.

This was in an old thread last year.

Those are on toms car(trainwreck). A1 are good people. Tom's car handles amazing, and those arms have held up to more abuse then most of your cars will see in a lifetime.

yeah, they are on my car. some of the bonuss of them:
1) lighter than stock
2) more adjustment than stock
3) can change camber, caster, and toe without jacking up car
4) more solid design (as they use solid heims instead of rubber bushings)

anyone who has any doubt about the durabilty of these arms or strenght should ask sponsored1 (chris). That lunatic locked tires in my car at 170mph when the motor threw a rod, and the car went into a spin. please try to imagine the sideload placed on the wheels / control arms as a 3200 lb car is sliding sideways at 170mph. THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO THE CONTROL ARMS!!! they were not bent, broken, or misaligned. These arms are well worth the money for anyone intersted in a well handling road racing chassis. In my opnion, the ammount of suspension work saved my friends life when he locked tires at that speed a few weeks ago.
