SPC Performance Toyota Tacoma Upper Control Arm Pair Part #35470 for 2nd & 3rd Generation

Description

Designed, engineered, tested, and assembled in Colorado, the SPC Performance Toyota Tacoma Upper Control Arms (Part #35470) are built to enhance your vehicle’s suspension performance. Crafted from forged steel, these control arms are engineered for maximum strength and durability, suitable for demanding off-road and lifted applications. They feature sealed modern architecture ball joints with a 25% larger stud cross section than OEM, coated with E-Nickel for superior corrosion resistance. These ball joints provide 80° of articulation, ensuring smooth operation and extended lifespan comparable to OE standards. The control arms incorporate bonded rubber xAxis™ flex joints that allow for extended suspension travel and improved noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) characteristics, resulting in a quieter ride and better handling. The design includes additional caster provision to restore proper alignment angles on lifted trucks, helping to prevent issues like wandering and uneven tire wear. The adjustment range of these arms, combined with OEM adjusters, enables precise camber and caster correction, allowing for maximum tire clearance of up to 33 inches without frame or fender modifications. These features facilitate better tire positioning, ensuring the tire is centered in the wheel well for optimal clearance and tire wear. The fully sealed ball joint architecture maintains grease inside and keeps contaminants out, providing maintenance-free operation. The control arms’ extended threads and compatibility with knuckle gusset kits make them versatile for various lift setups. Sold as a pair, these control arms are essential for improving handling, alignment, and tire clearance on lifted Toyota Tacomas. For lower control arm adjustments, SPC offers replacement cams (Part #25440 or #25435) depending on the model year. These control arms meet high standards for strength and performance, backed by US patent No. 7,513,514, making them a reliable upgrade for serious off-road enthusiasts and those seeking improved vehicle alignment and handling.
