Good product.

The LCAs make noise going over bumps at low speeds because of the spherical rod ends.

The PHB squeeks when the body of the car is torsioned. Say you are backing out of your driveway at an angle and one tire goes down first. It will squeek until both tires are on the same level.

Buy 'em. It's good stuff.

You confused me. At the end you say buy them it's good stuff but if sounded like you had some bad critiques of his product.

I too have heard nothing but good things about Bryan. In fact when my transmission is being changed out for the 7th time, my car will be sitting in his shop and I kind of wrote him a blank check onto going ahead and putting on whatever he does best under there. That's the reputation he has where one would trust him.

It IS a good product.

It ALSO has some "problems" with it. They're not problems, just nuisances that automatically come with modifying your car.

Anything with rod ends is very likely to make noise. It's a performance mod. If noise is a concern then poly bushing type product should be considered. I have a BMR extreme sway bar with rod ends (it makes mucho noise), I have madman LCAs with rod ends (they make some noise) and I have a Pavlock PHB with rod ends on the way and it's probably gonna make some noise. Bottom line is..there's usually a trade off for performance. You just can't have it all.

FWIW- We've pulled 1.29s on motor. We're ok with a little noise

The noise from the LCAs are a definite "CLUNK"

The noise from the PHB is a squeaky bed for sure.
