OLD PA-RACING A-ARMS: PASSENGER SIDE DAMAGE
************************************************************************************************************************
***NOTE:***
I had a fluke problem with my A-arms... A few A-arms were outsourced and that company choose to use inferior tubing and mine and the others theymade failed. Since PA does everything in house. For me and others...PA made things right and has improved on the product since my purchase. I would not hesitate to use their products in the future!

Stress crack on the front leg...
Stress crack on the front spring pocket leg
Check out the bend in the front leg that remained. Think this must have occured after the break. The drivers side has no such bend!
