CALOFFROAD UPPER CONTROL ARMS
CalOffroad says these are “stronger than the original”
For more than 30 years, CalOffroad explains it has been developing and producing some of “the most advanced and highest-performing” 4×4 and offroad suspension systems in Australia.
Since becoming an official member of the CoolDrive Auto Parts family, the brand is reportedly going from strength to strength.
CalOffroad, along with Bilstein and FOX, form a comprehensive range of offroad suspension products available from CoolDrive, which includes a complete line-up of “hassle-free,” bolt-on suspension components such as upper control arms, ball joints, and bush kits.
When a 4×4 suspension lift kit is installed, it can displace the original suspension caster and camber specifications beyond acceptable limits.
This can result in the loss of caster, leading to vague steering and the introduction of positive camber, which contributes to uneven and accelerated tyre wear.
CalOffroad’s upper control arm technology, with fixed and adjustable options, provides OE equivalent bolt-on solutions for lifted 4x4s to correct the wheel position and eliminate misalignment.
They are designed to maximise tyre-to-arm clearance and increase chassis space clearances to ensure a hassle-free off-road adventure.
Forged from heavy-duty STKMIIA carbon steel tubing, CalOffroad upper control arms are coated with a double-layer shield to protect against corrosion.
Low noise, maintenance-free original equipment style rubber bushes are built into the upper control arms, with wheel travel increased by complementary heavy-duty, high-angle, greaseable ball joints.
The CalOffroad upper control arm ball joint provides better articulation over the factory arm which works in unison with the upgraded suspension.
The ball pins are constructed from SCM435 Molybdenum and Chromium alloy steel and have undergone heat treatment which improves wear resistance and extends product life.
Employing a Mirror treatment process, the ball stud surfaces are polished to an ultra-smooth finish, facilitating fluid rotation.
With options for fixed and adjustable configurations, the CalOffroad ball joints cater to diverse needs.
Complementing the ball joints, are CalOffroad’s upper control arm bush kits to ensure peak vehicle stability, braking efficiency, and steering precision.
Utilising CalOffroad’s advanced composition bushings, these kits offer exceptional elasticity, memory, and unparalleled durability.
Compatible with a range of control arms, CalOffroad says its bush kits represent a substantial upgrade over stock components, promising superior performance and reliability.
All CalOffroad products are developed, tested and refined in a private off-road testing facility right here in Australia.
CalOffroad also boasts a comprehensive delivery and service network staffed by the CalOffroad and CoolDrive teams, many of whom are 4×4 enthusiasts themselves.
