I have a 1986 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham w/hydraulics.3 pump, 8 batteries(31 series trojans), 6 in front 10 in rear, not chained up.My question is how can I go about making some custum upper control arms because the factory arms tear in half when standing 3 or lifting the back end up quickly or high.I really don't want a chain that is going to limit my rear end height or three wheel.

Whoah dude. Noooo first things first, you WANT a chain. It's not going to limit a damn thing. A chain pulls your axle forward helping put more weight to the rear when hopping. And when three wheeling it helps pull that side of the frame up and the axel forward. A chain will almost DOUBLE your three in most cases. But back to the control arms. Try extending and reinforcing your stock ones. I'm not sure how long. Go to www.layitlow.com and ask in the hydraulic forums. Someone will tell you the EXACT measurement.
