Chrome Moly vs. Mild Steel? Since the search button sucks, and I can't find any post's regarding this........What do you guys run for LCA's? I am going to order some BMR LCA's and am not sure whether or not to pay the extra $$ for chrome moly. How much less do the chrome moly's weigh? Worth the $$? I was going to order the rubber/poly because I've heard that they are quieter and bind will be less of an issue. Are these good, or should I just do poly/poly? It's hard to beat $119 for the mild steel poly/poly BMR's. I don't want to do the heim joints BTW.

Thanks Lee! Does anyone run the chrome moly ones? If so, do you think the weight difference is worth the extra $$? Come on guys, I know everyone and their grandma has lower control arms...

I have the moly ones in rubber and poly. I am will to pay the addition cost for the weight. They sound just like stock.
If I did it again I would do the spohn moly, poly, rod end. I may get a set just to try.
