J&M Aluminum On-Car Adjustable Lower Control Arms with Rod Ends (23961) - 2005-2014 Mustang
Maximize traction, improve rear suspension control, and eliminate unwanted bushing deflection with the J&M Aluminum On-Car Adjustable Lower Control Arms. Designed specifically for serious performance and racing applications, these lightweight lower control arms replace the factory stamped steel arms with precision-engineered aluminum construction and premium spherical rod ends for unmatched axle control and suspension articulation.
Unlike many competing control arms that utilize lower-quality commercial-grade two-piece rod ends, J&M equips these arms with ultra-high precision PTFE-lined spherical bearings featuring heat-treated alloy steel races and advanced bearing liners. This premium design delivers precise axle location, eliminates compliance that contributes to wheel hop, and allows the rear suspension to articulate freely without binding.
J&M also incorporates an offset bushing design to maintain proper suspension geometry throughout the suspension's range of motion. Weighing less than 2.5 pounds each, these control arms provide a significant weight reduction of nearly 9 pounds compared to the factory components, improving suspension response and overall performance.
Note: These control arms are engineered for racing applications and are not recommended for street-driven vehicles.
