So I've been lookin around for a while now for a decent set of rlca's. I do not want to buy garbage, but I am having a hard time paying 250 dollars for them... Does any other the other companys test their products and actually develop them. I would love maxium motorsports but 250 will kill me! I found J&M rlca's for 170 but I don't know much about them. I tried finding a nice used set but couldn't find any as my luck would be... Any help anyone?? Thank you, Bobby

If it's not a pressing issue, you should probably look around the classifieds, and see if you can find some like that. I got my MM HDs for 190 shipped, and they were never even used. Honestly, for the most part, you will probably be ok with whatever you can find, so stuff like UPR would be just fine, as long as it's not chinese manufactured.

Awsome thank you! Yea I found some other forums to look in the classifieds but no one had anything!! I wasn't sure how upr's quality was, I have bought halfway decent stuff so far, and I didn't want to cheap out completely on the last thing I needed. That is a great deal!! I need to come across something like that!

Don't mean to hijack, what do you guys think is stronger, boxed or round control arms? Starting to do some research on suspension

I have read so many things that completely conflict each other on that haha. I would think that both would have their advantages but I do not know. Either way they hopefully are better than stock

The round profile is somewhat stronger, but at the same time, a little harder/expensive to manufacture due to the tooling and jigs required.

These went on mine, could not be more happy w/ them. Installing LCA are not that bad either, Did it w/ a friend in his garage in an afternoon.

One thing we did have to do was to bend the E Brake bracket to keep it from rubbing my rear drivers side tire. The bracket is relocated on the new control arm and it was very close to the inside of my rear tire but after bending the bracket it was fine.
