tubular lower control arms

I want to upgrade the front suspension by putting tubular upper and lower control arms on. Has anyone done this and is it worth it. basically I am trying to take as much weight off of the front as possible so it will handle better and what else can I do to drop some weight in the front. also who makes the cheapest tubular control arms that are high quality? thanks

Re: tubular lower control arms

the ART strong Arms are heavier than your stock arms. Do a search for a-arms and you will get a ton of info.
