i thought it would be interesting to see how many people wish they went with the adjustable suspension parts or wish they didnt spend the extra money. Or wish they went with spherical rod ends instead of poly.
cause ive seen people buy the regular poly LCAs but then their rear end was uneven and they needed the adjustables.
who has this happened to?

i bought adjustable LCA's & Torque Arm, but they have not arrived yet, so i can't really accurately vote in this poll as of yet
although i think for the sake of fairness, there should also be an option for:
"i bought adjustable parts, and they are much better than the non-adjustable ones"

We already spoke about this...BUT, I will post cause I am bored at work and hate reading emails all day.
I have an Adj. PHB, because when you lower a car, many times you have to realign the rear end...which I did. It was very easy to realign using measurements and a plumb bob...
As far as any other components being adj......well....I have non adj. poly/poly LCAs from BMR, which are beefy as all hell and strong...the poly/poly ends make for a good ride, with LITTLE sqeak if any....I really don't see the need for adj. LCA's....just seems like more trouble than it is worth you know!
As far as I am concerned...the Torque arm and PHB must be adjustable...everything else, no....
As far as ends...preference and how much $ you want to spend..POLY is a proven material that lasts a long time...that's all I know..
peace

Every piece that i've bought has been adj. There were a few carry-overs from my modded (prevous owner) Z-28. Those have since been replaced aside from the LCA's which are next.
Adj. T/A
Adj. PHB (replaced)
Adj. Shocks
Reloc. brackets
Boxed non-adj. LCA's (soon to be replaced)

adj on everything except LCA's for me, i would buy them if a 9" was ever possably going to be in it as they dont center up real good, but i wont ever have a 9" so no need that i can see for me.

If you can set them up correctly, buy the adjustable pieces. If it's too much of a hassle you may not take the time to optimize it.
I'm getting enough negative camber with my GW UCA's to not justify an adjustable version. Adjustable coilovers front, weight jackers in the rear, double-rod-ended panhard, double-rod-ended LCA, LCA brackets, adjustable TA, adjustable panhard height, Koni double-adjustable shocks. I wish there was a adjustable sway bar kit that would mimic a range of 22-25mm solid rear bars, and an inexpensive rod-ended endlink kit (I've already found the expensive kit).
The only part which added noise was the LCA's over rough surfaces. I rarely am on those surfaces so it doesn't bother me too much.

I bought an adjustable torque arm. I was given non-adjustable lower control arms and panhard bar for my birthday and wish they were adjustable, but I really cant complain. I will probably sell them and upgrade at some point in the future.

i bought the umi on car adjustable panhard bar, and im glad i bought it. wasnt hard to install either. i plan on buying all adjustable suspension parts...never know when your going to need it.

Save enough to buy the best stuff or adjustible stuff. If you're anything like most enthusiast you will most likely keep updating your car and as xBROKEx said ' better to have it and not need it thant to need it and not have it '
