    the upr's are prob about 100 bucks cheaper
    were doing mm e.d control arms in tony71502's stang i would def. go with mm there alittle more change but i feel its worth it just my opinion carry on

    I had CHE on my TC (now on Frank;s car) and didnt think twice about them for my Capri. I did swap the uppers for the Baseline set-up, but was real happy with their package.

    I wonder what is up with them taking the arms off the site?

    voted mm just because I don't trust in upr. But neither would be my choices. If you are daily driving your car that is definately something to take into consideration. Remember to be realistic in what you can live with in a daily driver. but, the thread is a good idea cause you can get a "real" world opionion. good luck
