Has anyone made upper and lower rear control arms with  spherical rods end and that were  adjustable? Any pics?

I think Maximum Motorsports did. CHE makes adjustable control arms, too, but they've got Delrin bushings. I've got 'em in my car (just installed a few weeks ago, along with a TC 8.8 - haven't actually driven the car with 'em in yet)

I've been running the CHE adjustables since last august.  they are extremely stiff and give the car a good feel.

Airbags sit where the coil spring usually goes, on top of the lower control arm.
