Product Description
Old Man Emu Front Upper Control Arm Pair (Tacoma 2005-2023)
When an independent front suspension (IFS) vehicle is fitted with a suspension lift, the caster and camber can be pushed outside factory specifications. IFS vehicles generally have a few degrees of adjustment in their camber and caster from the factory. Adding these Old Man Emu control arms brings the alignment cams back into an acceptable range for both caster and camber.
Each control arm is carefully constructed to meet all VSB14 requirements. The ball joint housings and eyelets are made from forged steel for added strength. The ball joints are greasable and include protective caps to endure rough conditions, while also holding up long-term. All of this is coated in a durable black powdercoat finish that looks great and protects the control arms. Order the pair recommended for your vehicle application.

*** The upper control arms will provide an increase between +2.5 and +3.5 degrees of caster and up to 1.5 degrees of negative camber increase (figures based off an approximate 50mm or 2" lift)
