Looking for LCA or PHB?
Looking for LCA or PHB? Don't be afraid to look at Midwest Chassis suspension items. We offer them in Chromemoly and Aluminum for those guys looking to shave some extra weight. LCA can be purchased with offset bushings and we drill one of our chassis bushings to accept the factory bolt for the PHB. This way you can reuse a factory bolt and everything fits snug with out slop. Something else you don't see from many other manufactures is we anti seize the heim joints before we ship them out the door. That is just part of that extra step we try to go to make instal easier for our customers.
Our prices already beat the competition but if you purchase a PHB and LCA at the same time we will make you a package deal.
We can do poly ends or a combination of poly heim but we prefer the use of a good quality heim joint for it's performance benefits. No matter which way you set them up we can make them on car adjustable.

I didnt know you made em in aluminum? What kind of weight difference is there between the chromoly, and aluminum? Is there any advantage/disadvantage to the Al, besides weight reduction?
The advantage is weight savings, disadvantage would be over all longevity of life and that they are for off road use only. As for weight savings I'm not so sure I can even get our scale to get a reading off of them.
MWC LCA made from C/M is $225 shipped
MWC PHB made from C/M is $175 shipped
Purchase them together and they are $375 shipped
This for double adjustable with heim joints on both ends.

No problem, we offer many different things.

These guys put out a great product. I just bought a tq arm/dsl for my true dual setup and I was very impressed with the quality work that they have done on it. The customer service is top notch as well. Jason took the time to answer my questions and point me in the right direction and will definetly be getting my business for all my suspension components.
Trust me when I say there is always a purpose for adjustable suspension. With that said and you are still interested in non adjustable parts PM me and we can figure something out for you.

From everything I've read, adjustments become necessary as you change the geometry of your car's suspension by lowering with different springs. If you plan to keep the stock springs, or maintain the stock ride height, I think you can get buy with non-adjustable parts. Not sure if a 12 bolt or other mods can require an adjustable panhard or not.
I bought non-adjustable stuff because I don't intend to lower the car. You can save a lot of money and still get improved rigidity, better bushings, and a weight reduction.
If you're planning on doing autoX competitions or something like that, adjustability is also nice to fine tune any adverse handling issues. But if that's the case, you probably already have something besides stock springs, too.

The Adjustable LCAs allow you to center the wheel front to back in the wheel well. This comes in handy if you decide to run a bigger/taller tire out back.
They arent just meant for when you lower your car. My car is stock height, I still needed the adjustable parts, especially when I put on my widened wheels, and 315s.

^^^ True dat.
These cars are pretty close from the factory, but if you want it right then the adjustable is the way to go for sure. Can't tell you how many times we have sold customers adjustable parts when they already had an aftermarket component on the car.
The adjustable is almost a must if you have LCA relocators and 9 out of 10 cars on the alignment rack could stand to have a thrust angle or track adjustment. I can almost guarantee if you install a set of relocators that the alignment will change.
It's more of a doing it right the first time thing... why spend money twice?

Kind of a newb question, but what causes this? I just got some LCA brackets today and I'd like to throw them on the car. I have stock LCA's for now, will that cause a problem or would I just need to get it aligned after the install?
I could go on forever about why, but down to the point you should just have the alignment checked. The numbers will tell you if you will need an adjustment that isn't available with stock or non adjustable components.
I do not suggest the use of a bolt-on lca relocator due to the fact there will be some movement no matter how it is mounted, especially in a car that sees hard launches or track time. I would put some welds on a set that has been bolted on if already installed but the extra cost of the bolt-on style just isn't worth it in the end.
And to add to the wheel alignment issue there is a good possibility that your pinion angle will need adjustments after the relocators as well... another reason the adjustable components is a god idea right from the start... why spend money twice?
