I put 24” rims on my 1979 Monte Carlo and redid the suspension got everything back together added 2 rocks to both sides so they don’t rub anywhere and get good clearance but now my tires lean in at the top badly. So I took all the shins out thinking this would but it didn’t. Went to the alignment shop he recommended that I get longer upper control arms any suggestions on which to purchase

You'd have to modify your stock one like lowriders with extending them, find someone who sells tubular ones made for donks or you could modify caprice ones as they are 1" longer than Gbody if that's all you need

Taller Ball Joints will fix the camber issues A LOT. and reduce most of the toe in/out during suspension travel.

All low riders/high riders should use them.

I guy i work with has a 13" wire wheel, full hydraulic's Regal and the Camber/toe changes during articulation are terrible and you can see it happening right in front of you.. It's painful for me to watch.

Tall ball joints.

Will the ones off a caprice fit or would I have to change the inner section where they bolt back on to the frame?
