Lower Control Arms

Launching harder, reducing wheel hop, and adding cornering consistency to your 1979-1998 Mustang is easy with lower control arms from BMR's suspension. Stock stamped steel control arms with soft rubber bushings deflect under load and absorb power instead of transferring it to the tires. BMR's polyurethane/rod end, single-adjustable tubular control arms for Fox body Mustangs (TCA049) are manufactured from heavy-duty 1 5/8-inch DOM steel tubing. This design gives you a strong control arm that greatly improves performance, with the adjustability to fine-tune the rear axle alignment. The integrated spring perch is built from heavy-duty plate steel for loads of strength. Greaseable, 95-durometer bushings add a solid, more responsive feel over the stock rubber bushings. BMR's bushings are internally fluted, which allows grease to evenly coat the inner sleeve. These flutes also direct grease to the outer edge of the bushing, keeping the thrust surface lubricated. This efficient lubrication ensures quiet, reliable operation over the life of the bushings. BMR's suspension designed the TCA049 to work well in street performance, drag race, and road race applications. The stock control arms flex under cornering loads giving you inconsistent handling characteristics. Combine this with soft bushings that have massive amounts of deflection and you're left with poor performance. The TCA049's heavy-duty construction eliminates control arm flex, giving you much improved repeatability on the street, starting line, or in the corners. BMR's polyurethane bushings are designed to be compliant enough to give you a comfortable ride and absorb NVH, while remaining firm enough to stand up to high loads of any performance environment. The bushings and rod ends easily handle the high compression loads of hard launches and hard acceleration, yet offer plenty of articulation for great handling.

Note for Pistons, Rings, Rotors, Rods and engine internals

Unless otherwise specified, some brands supply brake rotors, pistons, strut mounts, rods and rings separately. In some cases, titles may indicate plural, or 'set' - eg the term “ring set” often refers to the rings for a single piston only. If you’re unsure about what’s included with this product, please contact our team for clarification.

Stabilize your ride with BMR control arms. They are CNC-machined and made, depending on the application, from heavy-duty DOM steel tubing, chromoly steel, or 6061-T6 aluminum. BMR polyurethane bushings are designed to be compliant enough to give you a comfortable ride and absorb NVH, while remaining firm enough to stand up to high loads of any performance environment. Their greasable bushings are internally fluted to allow grease to coat the inner sleeve, while keeping the thrust surface lubricated—ensuring quiet, reliable operation over the life of the bushings.

BMR's heavy-duty spherical bearings are designed to eliminate deflection and wheel alignment changes. Their spherical bearings can withstand the extreme stresses of the performance environment, offering all of the bind-free suspension articulation needed for great handling.

These design features result in incredibly strong control arms that greatly improve performance and work well in street performance, drag race, and handling applications. Many are adjustable, allowing you to dial-in pinion angles for correct driveline geometry, or correct, add, or reduce negative camber and other alignment settings.

BMR control arms are the perfect upgrade for the enthusiast looking to improve performance at an affordable price, while maintaining acceptable NVH levels and ride quality. When performance is a must, rely on BMR Suspension!
