calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'

from the title i think he wants to fit au control arms to his nc to get au offset???

it wont fit, it wont work unless you do a complete au k frame conversion which need a bit of fabrication work to the rail mounting points.....

if thats not the question, then english is what we read in australia!!!
