I have a new item to show off. Its the 88-98 GM fullsize uppers. The ones in the pic below are adjustable with heim joints. They are also 1" shorter than stock with the heims all the way in to the jam nuts. This set is for a guy that wants more negative camber than the stock arms and cam bolts provide. so these should do the trick. With the cam bolts and these heims there should be a bunch of adjustment. They have bushings that hold them in the center. I made these on the lathe. I will offer these on my site immediately.

The heims are Speedwaymotors.com Pro 1 series 3/4" with a 3/4" hole. The tubes are 1.250"x.188" DOM and the balljoint plates are .250" thick AR500 armor plate.

Im also making another set of these with poly bushing adjustable ends. They will be stock length with the bushings screwed all the way in. I should have pics of those soon. The bolts in these pics are just to hold the washers in place for the pics. You would use the stock cam bolts for installation.

The normal upper and lower set is $550
The normal version upper set is $225
The normal lower set is $325,

Im not 100% sure on pricing for these yet. I think probably $295 for the upper set with adjustable heims, and probably $265 for the upper set with adjustable poly bushings.


These are time intensive to make because I have to turn several pieces to make the heim pieces.

well Yours are on the jig right now. I just came in from the shop, the bugs ran me out....

I may have your uppers done tomorrow. If not then Monday they should be ready. I will probably make 1 or 2 extra sets of uppers before I flip the jig over and start making lowers.

I also have some Mazda parts I need to do tomorrow... and theres those Chevy Luv lowers Im working on... dangit... well at least theres no Sprint cup series race tomorrow... I may get a bunch done.

The good thing about Speedway's Heims is you can order 3/4" heims with 5/8" bolt holes and 5/8" heims with 1/2" holes. Those are handy when it comes to making watts links...

I have also NEVER had to replace a worn speedway heim.

pics of the adjustable poly bushing arms in the morning. I tried to get pics tonight but the bugs wouldnt stay out of the shot.
