I have a set of Global West's Upper control arms for my Cutlass. They have the offset cross shafts for more caster, and the Del A Lum bushings in them. I am wondering how they are for durability, and also noise? Do they squeak a lot? I am also contemplating changing to tubular lowers up front when I do the uppers and tall spindles as well. Then, I also want to use their spherical bearing lowers in the back too, to add articulation to the rear suspension and more control. Will I hate these joints due to wear issues or noise? The car will not be used as a daily driver, but may be used as a long trip car. It probably will not see more than 15,000 miles a year, but I still am concerned about how these bushings and joints are to live with.
I am also planning on going to their recommended springs which are softer than what I have now ( so far as I can tell). Supposedly, the added negative camber that comes with compression also adds cornering grip. Plus, I really would like something softer than the around 750psi fronts I currently run.
