Thinking they are, but are these stock LCA's? They look different than I'm used to, but to flimsy to be aftermarket

Bone stock
Thanks for the quick responce. I had a feeling they were.Originally Posted by Flyin Monkey
They are stock. Same shape and size as regular S197's, different color and bushings. I can't recall the exact substance of the bushings, but they're slightly stiffer than the others, but less forgiving than poly.

actually hasn't been that bad. Is there a particular brand most guys are using? I think I had steeda on the Mach.
I run the Steeda's that have the spherical bearing in the front.
BMR... adjustable if you plan to lower it...

it's already lowered
You don't need adjustable lower arms if it's lowered only the panhard needs to be adjustable.
I have Che's on ours now...squeak...squeak...squeak...these damn things seem to need greased once a month.
You won't need adjustable control arms, but you may need lowering brackets for them. I've got Roush springs in the rear and it's only 1" lower, but the LCA's were no longer level. You may get some rear steer at higher speeds without them being level. It's just a sixxer, but the rear end bounced a good bit on hard takeoff with the stock arms and the GT500 arms.

Watts Link. Much better.
Agreed, but much more money too.
I put the UMI trac pack LCA,s with relocating brackets on mine and that ended the wheel hop all together

Yes, but like I said on other boards, next to the TVS, the Watts was the best mod I did for my car. The difference in vehicle dynamics and response is amazing. If this is a drag car, the Watts may not be the way to go, though.
Back to the original topic:
I put the BMR LCAs on mine. Added the re-lo brackets when the FRPP Handling Pack went on 2 years ago. Added the adjustable Panhard then, too (but switched to the Watts a couple months back).
The CHE do like to squeak! I want to change.
I have the Steeda LCA's on mine. Never did the relocation brackets since it was only lowered an inch (Supposedly not needed).
On the GT500, I got BMR's set. When they came from Lethal Performance, one of the grease fittings was cross threaded... But after tapping the hole, the fitting screwed right in without a problem.
I would go with BMR due to the grease fittings.
