If anyone is considering running Grantelli suspension parts, lets just say the consequences arent worth the risks (pictures snagged from FEP), Steeda knock-offs and Maximum Motorsports knock offs.

Not my stuff, I run UPR lowers and Baseline suspension uppers

You couldnt give me Granacopy stuff, just trying to prevent someone else from falling for their "low" prices ;)

Wow. Thanks for the pics! The first set of pics, the lowers actually look quality, but the car didn't have that big of tires on it. Crazy.

Yep, JR Granatelli builds great parts.

He is a true skidmark in the underwear of the Mustang enthusiast.

thats crazy, wonder if anyone has ever gotten hurt on account of their stuff breaking.

Hell I could have said to stay away from Granatelli crap. I tore their double adjustable uppers in half nearly on my car. Think I have a topic floating around somewhere on here about that. I was probably 1 or 2 more launches away from eating a guard rail. I have a crappy MIG welder that can do better penetrating welds then what Granatelli can do.

Steeda and Baseline stuff for me.

I couldnt remeber who's those where you broke! Even more ammunition to keep the uninformed away from their junk.

Could you imagine those crappy lower lowers on either your or my car? Keith would crap himslef looking for clutch parts and see the rear housing walk forward under the car

**Ares** · 02-14-2009, 07:58 PM

Bob those lowers would not survive one launch on either of our cars. I never trusted the weight jacker arms as their design looks weak without some serious gussets in place. That aluminum arm in first picks is a joke of a design.

upr's double adjustable uppers arent much better. should see the damage ripping both in two causes. It was done on an N/A stock shortblock car.

But yeah, granatelli is crap!

Baselines get the job done right!
