FDF 86 Front Lower Control Arms 13+ BRZ FRS GR86

Manufacturer: FDF
SKU: fdf_86FLC
$899.99
We've been working with FDF on this one for a while. The front lower control arm is probably the most important part of the 86 suspension puzzle. Added shim type adjustability for more camber & caster, roll center correction, high quality spherical bearings, and super durable design that doesn't utilize jam nuts or collars that seemingly always want to loosen. We have stress tested these arms on our GT86.2 test mule for a full season of abuse, not a single issue and our alignment is dead on every time.

The FDF FLCA is designed specifically to fill the void in the market where high strength, zero deflection, and maximum grip are required. Currently, no arms like these exist; we used the industry's finest materials to produce fully adjustable control arms with shims, not jam nuts, while maintaining proper load paths and rigorous FEA analysis.

By utilizing 7075-T6 Billet Aluminum17-4 PH Stainless Steel, and High-Strength Alloy Steels, FDF delivers a product that is stiffer and more durable than any other aftermarket offering.

Geometry

Camber & Track Width Extension: Achieve the perfect contact patch for your specific discipline. This kit allows you to move beyond factory settings to a dedicated -2.5° to -4.0° setup. By extending the lower arm, you increase front track width and give the tire the best opportunity to control the chassis through every corner.

Advanced Caster Tuning: Using our unique caster adjustment design, you can lengthen the arm and perfect your caster while maintaining the proper load path for all forces applied to the control arm. By maintaining a one-piece arm design, we respect the original intent of the chassis, which was not designed to support a two-piece arm. This results in zero deflection under heavy braking and high-load cornering.

Roll Center & Anti-Dive Correction: Lowering your vehicle typically destroys your suspension’s roll center. FDF’s corrected geometry brings the roll center back toward the center of gravity, reducing body roll without requiring much heavier spring rates. Additionally, our adjustable anti-dive geometry keeps the chassis composed under heavy braking, maintaining your front splitter height and preserving vital suspension travel.

Key Benefits

  • Zero Deflection: Every factory rubber bushing is replaced with motorsport-grade spherical bearings, eliminating the "mushy" feel caused by bushing deflection.

  • Precision Shims: On-car adjustability is handled using shims to perfect your alignment. This allows you to accurately make small changes without the worry of threaded adjusters loosening over time.

  • Maximum Clearance: Optimized arm profiles provide the necessary room for high-angle steering and wide-wheel fitments while maintaining the highest rigidity possible.
