Great write up
I also used these "ebay" control arms, and was a bit concerned about the quality. I have a 1974 Olds Omega (I believe they are the same control arms, as the front sub frames are the same) I got the 2" drop.
I installed them myself and fount it easy and the fit was perfect. I also have Hooker Super Comp Headers (ceramic coated) and the drop was to much, so I installed 1" rubber spring spacers under the stock height springs.
Now I have the 1" drop and looks great.
I use mine the same, weekend cruising, car shows etc....no racing or autoX.
