You will get some replies on this. I know a few ppl here that have had trouble. I know of a broken PHB, a broken LCA and just recently a broken k-member. I am sure there was others

I have heard of one or two items, but on the other i have never had a failure with any BMR parts on my car. And i don't drive very easy, either. On the plus side, they do have very good customer service, if you have questions, you can call them. The number is on the web site.

UMI Performance boxed is worth looking into, search on ebay for them and take a look.

I have pretty much all the suspension parts you can put on a fbody. only my lca's are from bmr. only one part in the car makes horrible noises when under stress. wanna guess which part it is? call strano, or unbalanced engineering, these guys know their stuff.

I assume they are the adjustable version? I don't think BMR uses the best rod ends out there
