Tubular control arms vs. Boxed control arms?

[95MustangGT]

Hey guys,

I didn't see anything about this specifically on my search. I've never really been sure on the different reasons for tubular rear control arms and boxed control arms. I have a 95 GT that I used to autocross quite a bit, but I haven't been out on a course in the last six years. I'd like to start back and I want to update my control arms. Currently I have the Ford Bullitt suspension kit on the car with C springs in the front and welded in subframes. Which would be better for me to get, boxed or tubular? Thanks.

Shaun

Cool, Thanks. I forgot to mention that the car is mostly a daily driver. I drive 100 miles round trip everyday for work.

i have used MM and BBK"S in the past. I like the MM's more. A friend had a set of Hotchkis also that pretty decent also.

MM, griggs, Team z, and UPR make good products.
