pics of the control arms they were time consuming because you need to make the control arms and its a tight space to work in labor of love but I got them to work perfectly. the pictures are very close up so it looks dirty with particles that's because I did not wash it out before picture taking they function perfect looks don't matter to me in that area

just a tip. on the front dive planes, don't over tighten the gub screw(have them so you can push them in ). If they get jameed you will not be able to remove the lid(been there lol )
