Product Description

Skunk2 didn’t just refine their control arms—they reengineered them from the inside out. Whether you choose the Alpha Series (6061-T6) for serious street performance or go full-send with the Ultra Series (7075-T6) for maximum track durability, you’re getting a suspension upgrade that’s been shaped by hundreds of hours of R&D, real-world testing, and a legacy built on speed.

The Alpha Series arms are forged from 6061-T6 aluminum, offering exceptional strength, a lighter footprint, and long-lasting reliability. At 15% lighter and 7% stronger than the original Pro Series arms, they strike a perfect balance between responsiveness and comfort—ideal for dual-duty builds.

The Ultra Series, on the other hand, steps it up with 7075-T6 aluminum—a material chosen for its insane tensile strength of 78,000 PSI and fatigue life of 23,000 PSI over 500 million cycles. These arms are 19% lighter and 27% stronger than their predecessors, making them a go-to choice for hardcore racers and high-horsepower setups that punish components lap after lap.

Both arms feature high-load spherical bearings on the trailing side to eliminate bushing twist and Delrin bushings at the shock mounts to improve shock control with minimal deflection. For the subframe connection, polyurethane bushings come standard, delivering the perfect amount of vibration damping and feedback. Want more bite? The Ultra arms offer an optional inboard spherical bushing upgrade—swappable with basic tools in minutes.

These LCAs don’t just look the part—they’re engineered to hold alignment, control deflection, and improve traction, even under the most aggressive conditions. Every inch of design, from the machined profiles to the bushing materials, screams performance with purpose.
