UMI here but weld-in style. Spohn has some as well I belive but you should be good no matter what brand you choose out of the three.

mine are made by "rpm speed" from ws6store.com, they're the cheapest i found.

they work fine but my wheels sit further back in the wheel well than they should. not sure if it's a design or installation error on my part. have some adjustable lca's to straighten everything out anyway.

Hello, ours are laser cut and formed from cold rolled 3/16" steel. They are made from one solid piece instead of being welded. The shock mount and inside spacer are the only pieces that are welded on our brackets.
