Title says it. Stuff looks decent, prices are amazing. What do you guys think? What have your experiences been like?

havent dealt with their products at all but looks exactly like UMI stuff with a different name at a cheaper price imo

Yep, bought thier rod/rod panhard bar, rod/poly rlcas, and even a STB. All are solid, excellent welds, with high-quality rod ends.

The one thing I will say is that the adjustable panhard bar does not have an adjuster nut/flat on the bar itself to aide in adjusting, but having adjusted a number of panhard bars on the car it really shouldn't be needed.

For the price, I can't see buying anything else. Honestly, I can't see how UMI/BMR/etc can compete outside of thier "extreme" parts.

So, long-story short, save some cash and buy the Founders parts. You won't be disappointed.

I bought a non-adj panhard. Looked fine. Customer service was good as well.

Sounds good. How are their prices so cheap? Whats the big difference between them and brands like UMI and BMR?

I bought the relocation brackets & non adjust lower control arms simply because they were lower than anythang currently out there. No complaints with quality or price!

Does anyone know what material they are using and at what thickness?

From what I can see its the same DOM tubing that everyone else uses.

Certainly makes me wonder. I fabbed several pairs of tubular LCAs for use in my car and a friends car, and I know what the materials cost, so I don't see how theirs can be so cheap.


I bought thick walled, DOM tubing, and used either Moog or Energy Suspension bushings. Hell, the bushings alone, were something like $30-35 per pair of arms.....

That's what's has made me cautious about buying anything else besides the relocation brackets ^^ we don't know how long they will hold up or what they're made of. Unlike with umi or bmr. I am still goin with a full suspension from bmr. I just couldn't pass up the founders for the brackets.

Founder relocation brackets and they work fine.

What this guy said. Lower overhead, lower prices (overhead can be certain things such as smaller shop, smaller mortgage payment, less employees, less money spent on payroll).

Also buying in bulk can work wonders for pricing on materials.

I think they are just as soild as bmr just not paying for a name!
