Thumbs up Ryan @ UMI Rocks

Last night the Brown Santa visited.

Single Adjustable LCA
Double Adjustable PHR
Relocation Brackets
Bolt upgrade

Should nicely compliment the Torque arm I bought from UMI a few months ago.

Great price, ta boot!

Now I get to install it this weekend.

Unless things have changed in the past month or so, sometime in the spring, if all goes well. At least thats what I've heard from Ryan - he'll have to chime in to tell ya for sure.

Might give Ryan a holler. There was no "package deal" for exactly what I wanted (since I order CM stuff whenever they offer that) so he put together a package deal for me.

I too am waiting for that K-member to come out next year. At that time I plan to pick up A-arms and the K-member.

I just need to set up a direct deposit to them.

On a related note, since I don't know how to weld I had to get someone to do the relocation brackets for me. Was another LS1 Tech sponsor actually, and it was the first time they have worked with any of UMI's products.

Their statement "The UMI stuff is the best I've seen. I've worked with quite a few other companies relocation brackets and theirs aren't built as nicely. One really outstanding item was the bolts. The washers are attached to them so they don't fall off, and that makes the install a snap."

The same people looked at the other UMI goodies I had on the car, and absolutely loved the torque arm tunnel brace mounting, and stated that they see a lot of good ideas, and quality work in the UMI items.

Here are two quick snapshots of the work:
