Adjustable control arms

Cant seem to find anything in the search as to what I am looking for specifically. Maybe someone could help. I know there are several companies out there that make adjustable control arms, toe arms etc.

What I am looking for though are those arms but still with either rubber and or poly bushings. Not looking for the pillow ball type arms.

Aside from specialty products. Whiteline still has rear arms like I am looking for. Would there be any other company that sells such items?

Thanks for your time..

Spc is the main one, but DO NOT buy their tension rods. They’re crap.

Otherwise almost everyone switches to heim joints.

If you're looking for adjustable with rubber bushings, MEVOTECH is popping up on RockAuto.com, at least for a '95 240sx.

What scares me is that I don't see the brand new front lower control arms on there any more. For my own projects, this is problematic.

Yes but that was always a crap shoot. Order an s14 arm and half the time they’d send you a s13 arm.

NISMO has a lot of arms that are not adjustable but have new upgraded bushings. I'm about to change the whole rear arm setup on my S13 vert to NISMO (other than the RUA - I need adjustability there)

Fair point. I know I went that route for the fresh ball joints a few years back. At the time I didn't really care because I had coilovers with a lot of camber adjustment.

But now I'm working on a spring strut setup and thinking I'll need to make a jig to lengthen my LCA's.
