This is a sticky topic. I've heard about people saying that '97 Regal control arms are direct bolt-ons for 95-96 Rivieras. But someone also said that the Regal arms had totally different suspension geometry. Can anyone confirm this?

They do bolt on, but they also push the wheel a bit forward in the wheel well compared to stock arms.  I ran them for a bit while i had my arms off to replace the bushings in them.  With 225/55/16's it would rub on full lock.
