Just wondering what you think of them? I have a set that I picked up and, hopefully my first impression of what I see now is incorrect.

First thing I notice is they look like they are going to bind up like crazy, and make a lot of unwanted noises. Second they look really janky, hardly any resistance to bending if you're suspension takes a good hit while on track. Pot hole anything like that.

any more details of your impressions now that you have been using them for a few months? I have had my set for a couple years now, I hate them - just wondering if you are having better luck than me?

I have both camber caster plates and ground control coil overs. I have had them for years with no problems.I think the camber caster plates are the best on the market. You can see some photos of my 92 Talon on www.dsmtuners.com.I am pagosa dsm there.

Bit of mixed emotions. I think they are a great track set up but for DD they are a bit much. Because they do not allow the top spring perch to piviot, they clunk at low rolling speed when loading uneven spring tensions. (weight transfer) The other thing I dislike is the "tweaking" to get the stock strut tower bar to bolt up in the middle. Mine is currently not bolted up in the middle because of this.


On the track they have never given me any issues, no noise when you get past the initial clunk or two from the spring perch bind.


What do you dislike about yours?
