Steel tends to bend and aluminum tends to break. SO what is gonna happen if you bump a curb wit hthese?

I mean you can usually limp home if something is bent, but broken and you are stranded city.

Is this just my worry-wart-itis?
correct, my friend snapped his rallying.

If he had steel control arms, they would have bent beyond use before the aluminum ones snapped though.

But did the crossmember survive intact? That would be great if the arm snaps first.

Thought to add the parts numbers 20200FA061 for pass side aluminum GC control arm and 20200FA071 for the drivers side. These come naked except the front bushing and need to add the ball joint boss (spacer the ball joint goes into), and the rear transverse link bushing, washers and the mounting bolt. Adds up to a grand like someone said. The pic of them @ the fourth one down.
