I've got these

http://www.vettebrakes.com/detail.asp?PRODUCT_ID=42101

as well as their transverse mono leaf spring kit (which comes with the upper a-arms)

And the spring is rate settable, I've got mine at max (which is 700lbs!). I bounce on pavement joists :D

I would like to do the same, the stamped stock A Arms are terrible, 1950's design. I have not been able to find aftermarket upper and lower control arms, I wonder if they exist ?

68427 - Those arms are nice do they make a lower ? They also look really expensive. :D
