Good Suspension or what do you think...

I got a really good deal (well i think so) on some BMR LCA'S,TQ arm, and Panhardbar, only thing is that all are non adjustable. Lca's and PHB are tubular. Are these worth a buy or should i spend money on something else. My car has Lt4 H/I/C, All bolt-ons, 4.11's, Lt's w/x-pipe dumped at rear, 30lb injectors, walbro 255, 3200 stall...little more things but can't remember now. I have bad traction problems in 1st 2 gears, looking for suspension, as everything is all stock.

If you got a really good deal, keep the lca's, sell the torque arm and get an adjustable that does not attach to your trans, and decide if you're ever lowering your car or putting wider rims on it. If not keep the phb, if so sell that too and get an adjustable phb. Have fun with your new gear.

I agree, the lca's and panhard rod will be good upgrades, but I would try to shoot for an adjustable torque arm if possible.

Re: Good Suspension or what do you think...

hell yeah....


the torque arm alone is worth more than that.

the lca and phb together are $200 or so.

even the non-adjustable TA will help your launch. the LCAs will too, they eliminated all wheelhop on my cars, and helped plant the rear wheels.

you got a steal i think
