Yes, yes, and yes again.
I had a Lakewood adjustable PHR and it was a nite and day difference on the weight. Now I don't know about UMIs piece cause I have never had it in my hand but I have to say I was very impressed with Burkharts LCAs and PHR.
I have double adjustable rod ends with black powercoat and they have the offset bushings.

I drive my car less than 3k miles a year and its a straight line drag racer that I drive on the streets.
If you plan on driving it alot you might want to rethink the rod ends.

I agree. lightweight, and strong. Rod ends are a bit noisey on the street.

If you mini tub and want to get a huge tire under the car, you need offset spacers to clear the tire.

I can't say enough about The Quality of Burkheart's Products. I seen just about everything they make in person and it is all amazing, you can't go wrong.

If you want to save some money I have a CM panhard and set of offset LCA's that i'm looking to get rid of. They are identical to Wolfe's and i'll let them go for about half of what I paid. They are brand new. PM me if your interested.
