Do these come with bushings and ball joints already pressed in?
Cobalt FE5 Lower Control Arm LH 2008 - 2010 25930725

Thinking about getting the ottp bushings. but these would be much easier to install.

 

Pretty sure they do

 

Yup they come with them, I bought a pair a year ago. Direct bolt on replacement.

 

oe rubber ones tho u should ask john powell about his upgraded arms with the delrin installed there sweeet lol

 

Thanks! Will do.

Also are you running the Koni shocks in the rear? with the FE5 struts w/ pedders up front?
How are they? I am about the order the rear koni shocks with hardcore bar

 

yup but i just got my koni yellow fronts monday gonna put them in soon and there awesome

i also have a hardcore rear bar lol

 

Thanks. I might as well just order front, rear, and hardcore bar at the same time.
So i have been trying to read up on the koni struts and adjusting them.
Did you adjust the rears? or just leave them set to zero?
Are they softer then stock? I dont really want anything stiffer lol.

 

there stiffer than stock and i adjusted the rears two twists of 1/4 turn

 

Thanks. Did it lower the rear end at all? If they are adjustable, I can make them softer right?

 

the rear konis set two turns off full soft you be purrfect. We are working on a revalved front koni, adds about 200 per shock to the price with shipping ugh...but real nice valving I think. Wangspeed and Slowbalt will say when the time comes

 

Guess you just let the cat out of the bag, John Anyways, enough people ask about how to adjust Konis, and advice on what to set them to. Maybe I should make a sticky.

 

haha u should

 

Done!

Dunno who the mods are though.

 

haha Wangspeed great you did the Koni"how to", now check this out.










Loki's sport red TC has UCR, Harness Bar and full tanks with Pedders. Stealth's bone stock black TC had half tank and nothing else with stock springs.


You can see what I did there. Data being crunched, so I promise to get back to you with details I hope tomorrow....GC are holding things up, Jeff has been great, so moving forward at good speed.

 

PS Loki has a Hahn exhaust weighs a lot, Stealth has stock exhaust with muffler delete.
