Re: [DML] Front lower control arm replacement

[Martin Gutkowski <webmaster@xxxx>]

Do you think, as I do, that the flexibility of the original lower 
control arms allows for some absorbtion of sudden impacts (eg hitting a 
pothole) that a more rigid control arm might transmit strait to the 
chassis, possibly damaging it?

I'm probably wrong, but I do wonder why they weren't made stronger to 
start with

#4426 (front suspension in pieces, luckily everythng resurrectable with 
a coat of Hammerite!)
