We are expecting the price to be $350 shipped, complete.
Once we have a better idea of what we are dealing with and the quantities we will have more accurate pricing.

The address can be found on the website at OverkillEngineeringMotorsports.com

Sounds good to me. Faster someone gets them a pair in, the faster we can finally stop replaceing ball joints!

Keep us updated! I assume by complete you mean this lca will be ready to bolt up out of the box?

I am 100% interested in a set of these bad boys and for 350 that seems pretty fair.

Yes, bolt in. Might need to get an alignment after, unless you are good at dialing in your suspension.

Give us about 3 weeks to have a set complete. We are moving in the next week or two into our new building.

overkill control arms idea
I have been thinking about this for some time,how about not only making a tubular heim jointed lower control arm (friction less travel ) but also modify the control arm mount / cradle for less forward /aft movement.The rear mount of the control arm would be large bearing with adjustable carrier (modified cradle)to adjust caster. Added provisions could be front cradle attachment and or traction bars/ radius rods i think this alone would drastically improve braking feel and performance with the added strength of the front end locating the wheel asm.during accel and braking..just a idea..

Agreed, something to completely replace that mount with some sort of heim join would be sick.

Though I already have new poly bushings, including caster bushings, waiting to go onto my NX, I wouldn't mind a set of these!


Basically something that is stronger and lighter than stock, puts the ball joint in a better location is something that I'd be interested in.
Even more interested in Kenyukai's idea.
$350 for a basic tubular arm utilizing the stock rear bushing and a heim for the front bushing is fair IMO.

Is someone sending you a control arm?
