Doug,

I am in the process of doing the same thing.  There are at least  
three different A-arms, ones with the holes and mounts, ones with out  
which you can drill but also need to add a reinforcing plate on the  
inside of the A-arm and a A-arm that has a different reinforcing  
design entirely an has no place to put the holes and reinforcing  
plate (my case).
