joe,
call lee at bmr, he will tell you that the extreme are for race. well that is what he told me some time back. point is - that deflection is a very small amount of difference between the two. better example. look at spohn race torque arm it is a rod end that bolts to the body. now BMR still uses a poly mount and has very fast cars that use it(mightymouse) so poly to rod is not that much difference. the big difference is the articulation. a rod end has articulation, and a poly joint doesnt. but a JJ joint has both, articulation and quite ness.

I was just messing with you Big Bird.

I keep coming into this thread because I am very interested in seeing how these things work out as more people start using them.

Resurrecting this thread, as I'm also anxious to find out how well the DKT arms work out. I ordered a pair about a month ago, and I'm hoping to have them soon....real soon!

The funny thing about suspension parts that work right is the fact they don't do anything to drawl your attention to them; that's how my DKT LCA's have been.

Enjoy your silent articulation!

ryan,

we all know that parts run out of stock. when i ordered my front stuff from you. i was patient with the 7 week wait on that.

Inventory does run out. we all know this happens in the market.

I wasn't trying to start anything... just being curious was all. I remember you jumped on me when your order was taking longer than expected. It was actually 3-4 weeks and it was (2) k-members along with a upper and lower A-Arm set during peak season. Now that you are making items too do you see how easily it is to get behind and hard to get caught back up?

Sounds good Devin. Sometimes customers don't understand what it takes to manufacture products and keep them in stock... its a challenge of its own. Once you experience it yourself its totally different. LS1tech is an exception and these guys here know sometimes good parts require a wait

Fortunately for me, I spent 37 years working in a "custom manufacturing" department of a Fortune 500 company, and understand how delays can occur. It doesn't make them any more pleasant, but I do know how they develop....
