65-70 Impala Front Upper A-Arms

The Global West 65-70 Impala Front Upper A-Arms (Model CTA-51A) are essential suspension components designed to restore or upgrade the front-end geometry of second-generation Chevrolet Impalas. As a chassis mechanic, you know that worn or bent upper control arms are a leading cause of poor alignment, tire wear, and loose steering feel—especially in classic muscle cars that have seen decades of road use. These replacement arms allow you to dial in proper caster and camber angles, directly improving handling predictability and extending tire life on your restoration or performance build.

Global West has engineered these upper A-arms with precision ball joints and correctly angled geometry specific to the 1965–1970 Impala platform. The arms maintain factory attachment points while allowing for modern alignment adjustment through shim packs or eccentric bushings, giving you the flexibility to set negative camber for cornering grip or keep it neutral for boulevard cruising. At 28 lbs per pair and measuring 14.5 x 13.25 x 20.25 inches, they're substantial enough to handle street and light track duty without requiring frame modifications, making installation straightforward for anyone with basic suspension knowledge and a spring compressor.

These front upper A-arms are ideal for Impala owners performing a complete front-end refresh, whether you're correcting alignment issues from worn original equipment or building a chassis that handles better than stock. Pair them with new lower control arms, tie rods, and a quality alignment to transform the driving experience of your 1965–1970 Impala. Installation requires removing the wheel, spring, and old arm assembly, then transferring or reusing existing ball joint studs—a job that typically takes 1–2 hours per side with proper equipment.
