I have an older Dirt Works chassis with a Chevelle front clip and a 4 bar rear. I bent an upper A arm the last race and I’m thinking of trying to do some updates myself. The car still utilizes the stock upper A- arm mounts. How hard is it to change it over to the adjustable A-arms? Also, while I’m doing this I was wonting to go over the front roll center. Where should the roll center be located?

Thanks in advance,
RJ

The standeed I believe is roll center bout 3" above the ground. I'm sure there are cars with different but I believe that's a base.
Look at parts books all sell complete upper kits with mounts like southwest speed. Usually I see the uppers mount somewhere close to above the lower mounts. Look at photos if ya need ideas. I'm pretty sure you will get some better advixe here. Lots of sharp guys on here to learn from. I've learned a lot just reading

If your left front is off the ground , does the roll center matter?
