Buddy Club
P1 Racing Lower Control Arms
Factory lower control arms are bulky, heavy and over time the bushings can start to fail. The P1 Racing LCAs retain factory suspension geometry, but weigh only 2 lbs due to their aircraft-grade aluminum construction. To make the P1 Racing Lower Control Arms virtually maintenance free, Buddy Club manufactured its own P1 low-deflection bushings, durable enough to withstand the rigors of motorsports but with no noise, making them ideal for street driving.
