Well please keep us all updated when new parts are planned to roll out, for the price they seem like a good buy so I would be in line to purchase!

A STB that will clear a FAST 102 in an F-Body would be nice!

If they work.

It's kinda hard to screw up SFC's and LCA's. Other things IMO take a little more.

This statement is made only on you get what you pay for and isn't directed at you.

Idk lol but he didn't have anything to back up the claims he was making. If he had provided links to another thread with documentation or even on another forum, I might have thought he had a valid point. Since he didn't, I'm more inclined to think it was something personal, like he'd tried to scam Founder's, and failed. All I've seen on here is positive feedback about the quality of Founder's products, and I plan on buying some as soon as I can.
I'd love to hear about the projects Founders is working on though :-)

Founders you need to get on making a torque arm, sub frame connectors, and sway bars! You have a TON of demand from this site alone, not to mention if you sold them via your Ebay store.

If you priced them like you're pricing your LCA's and PHB's, you would make a killing. I would be in to purchase a full suspension!

There's a lot more to sway bars than something like LCAs or SFCs. Under $250 doesn't seem too realistic for a set worth installing.

Founders looks like it is the same as J&M Products/Hotpart.com, same contact number:

This is funny, you are offering to buy items you haven't even seen yet or have been tested or proven yet only because they will be cheap, correct?

You say there is a huge demand but I see a lot of companies making these products already with proven results. So basically this needs to be reworded to say there is a TON of demand for cheap parts?

If you do a quick search you will see that Founders, Hotpart and JM are all the same company, same parts just different prices. Why?
