I called Howe and the tech was going to look into it and call me back, which he never did.

Is my control arm weird or is the Howe BJ drilled wrong? I looked for specs on K5108 joints hoping to find a bolt diagram, but I've come up empty so far. Maybe they mistakenly sent me K5208's.

Are Proforged joints good? Afco, Global West and Moog don't have long BJ's for my car.
Ron, call Howe Racing and they will help you with the correct part for your application. They manufacture the best racing bolt joints in the market and nothing compares to their product.
