Default BMR lowering A arms?

I read in a thread a while back, think it was someone from bmr that posted it, that there was a 1 inch lowering A arm that was to come out for 4th gen cars in late september.

I emailed them, but still no word.

anyone else heard of this, or did i just dream it one late night trolling threads?

Haha, not a dream. BMR was talking about them, but I don't know when they're actually coming out. Have to keep emailing and checking the forum I guess!

I emailed them as well on this subject and they took some time to respond. They told me they are very close to releasing them.

Sorry for the delay. We have everything ready to go, but we got sidetracked. We just finished our new website and we need to wrap up the 2011 catalog before PRI. We are also redesigning and improving some other 4th gen products, so that has been taking time also.

I think these A-arms should be ready in a few weeks. The drop will be 1". Thanks for the interest!!

I think we can fabricate a small batch of 10 or 12 pair this week. We should have the data entered in the computer system by Tuesday. Call Kyle on Tuesday afternoon and he can take the order.

Thanks for your patience!!

I am going to be interested in these for sure. I have been sitting back and hearing about them. I have there BMR 1.25 inch springs an because I have a v6 it sits ever so slightly higher in the front if at all lol. I'm super picky and sometimes the rear looks lower. I'm looking forward to these. Thanks again BMR!

Hmm... I was kinda hoping it wouldn't have a rod end. Kinda spoils it for me since my Camaro is my DD.

Rod-ends are not bad in that location, as long as the jam nuts are tight. They transfer more impact noise, but not a lot!
