Looking into getting a new set of LCA. What kinda are ya'll running? Are there any bad ones I need to stay away from?? Just trying to get some good opinion before the purchased. Thanks in advance.

What are you running now? For which car?

They'll be for the GT. I fab up a set years ago from some roll bar tubing,but the bushing I used didn't hold up. Thought about getting a set that you can adjust ride height. Any one have any luck with them?

I think the weight jackers are suppose to be good

I ran the "cheapies" from JD's performance. No problems, think they were copies of someone elses design. I got a deal on them b/c the color of the powder coat turned out too "orange"...

I just put mine on. Very strong. 3 – piece urethane bushing on the chassis end and spherical bearing on the axle end.
My svo is within a half inch all the way around now. With the stock arms one side was 1.5" lower than the other.

I used a set of the cheap arms for a while and the bushings are broken from only 4K miles. Buy the nice ones and never look back. Steeda was my first choice but I got these in a trade.
