Upper control arms

Has anyone used these Beware

Classic Performance Stock-Type Control Arms 6374SCA-UK-BE​

Used them on a 72 roadrunner noticed the bushings were turning in the control arm (come Fitted) also turn on the alignment bolts when fully tightened removed the bushing & measured found they were .040 thou smaller than the original bush made in Mexico, the hole for the bush was also tapered so the bush only grips on the last portion of the hole ,well into the bin they go (Chinese crap)got some good bushings for the original control arm .

What’s the difference between these at $280

And the ones that have been offered at less than $100 thru various vendors for many years

You know I was looking at these for my RR build and wondering the same thing. Guess it's better to rebuild the originals?

Dept Transport will not approve them as they are butt welded i have a set of FF to put on later

Also the bushing is 1/16 shorter or 1/8" between the 2 meaning you have to do the alignment bolts super tight to pull the shock tower in to put tension on the bushing that's why they were turning on the bolt the new Moog ones needed just under a ton to push in the made in Mexico original needed 1.25 ton to press in
