I`d still like to see a bumpstop on them so folks don`t have to mount one to the frame but that`s about my only issue with them and that`s not a huge one because it`s easily fixed. We do have the new SPC lower arms coming out in the next week or two though. They`re a real step ahead of every other lower arm on the market with improved geometry (we`ve even compensated for centering the wheels in the wheel wells with increased + caster settings),GM bumpstops (ZQ8 are a 2min. bolt in), greasable delrin bushings std.,and they accept either std. coil springs (with laser cut shims to adj. ride height up to +.75" or -.75"!) or coil overs. We`ve been working with SPC on them for almost 2 years now! We brought the cost in at just $514pr. too. They`re going to be THE choice in lower arms. The Spohns will remain a really good (now) budget alternative though.

Klause,awesome BMW dash swap! The small heater box would make things so much nicer on big block cars too. What year/model BMW is it out of?

Thanks to guys like us, or BECAUSE of guys like us?
OK mark, I'm always in for better but... What are my lowers worth on trade in? I've invested so much already that I would really need some more incentive to change the lowers again. I'll even send you the plans on modifying Alston's junk adjuster tool so that it will actually work on a G body.
