Default The Front suspension

I was thinking today about how the standard front arms seem dangerous..


Looking at the way the suspension is set up the lower arm takes all the wieght of the car while the upper are just becomes a track contol arm. Now on the original donor car the weight of the car comes down on the top of the knuckle, the lower part of the knuckle is not designed to take wieght. Anyone that has built these cars how you put a brace of any sort between the upper and lower arms? It would take the weight off the lower joint and distribute to the upper arm also.
