Anyone running BMR?

Im currently running a crappry traction free 2.1XX 60' I've been reading alot of good things about BMR lately and was looking into their track pack and lower control arms with LCA's. Anything to lower my 60' at this time would be awsome.

I've got BMR LCAs, LCA relocation brackets and a BMR panhard rod. All of them are sitting in my kitchen, so I can't comment on their effectiveness yet, but I can comment on their build quality. They appear to be very well constructed and are very rigid. They will definately be a huge improvement over stock, and if you've got enough horsepower to flex these, you can rest assured that your rear end will break first.

i have the BMR drop brackets, boxed LCAs and adjustable panhard and they are on the car but my IROC is gettin a lt1 conversion so i dont know about their effectiveness but they are all heavy pieces so it might be worth it to buy chrome moly parts

BMR makes GREAT suspension products. From their normal stuff to the Race Duty stuff, I've seen it all in action working flawlessly on anything from stock cars to 9 second street cars.

If you're in the 2.00+ range though I would suggest nothing other than new tires for starters. If you're drag racing, set yourself up with a set of Drag radials or something like an ET street mounted on your stock rims. It's the best money ever spent. LCA's and the RELOCATION BRACKETS would be next. The brackets help more than people know, so do't pass those up. Goodluck!

Awsome man, you laid down steps one and two for the ongoing battle for traction.

I have the BMR LCA's and PHR.

The LCA's are the greaseable with poly on the axle and rubber on the frame side. Reason for this is ride quality.

The PHR is the greaseable w/poly bushings.

Made a noticeable difference over the 80,000 miles stock worn out pieces. The rear end doesn't swing out to the right under WOT anymore.

The LCAa/PHR and Kenny Brown SFC's, I dropped a whole 1/10 off my 60ft time.
