I think almost everyone has experience with em. Lol Im doing all BMR myself. Ive already got the panhard and LCAs in. Next will be the UCA. But it did make a huge difference. Its is a bit loud though with road noise but Im using spherical bushings not poly. You won't be disappointed.

yep all my stuff is bmr, great products, and Dennis is top notch. Excellent customer service

Had the BMR billet LCAs they were fine ,still have the non-adjustable pan hard bar no problems good sturdy product.

 

[1FastS197]

good, i'm glad to hear everyone is happy with there stuff...

I love my BMR poly/rod LCA's, excellent product..... and just to say it agian Dennis is the man when it comes to customer service.

just wondering and this is the first time every dealing with a suspension like this but what is the advantage of having adjustable LCA's? i see setting the pinion angle with the upper control arm and the adjustable panhard bar aligning the rear axle but what would the adjustable LCA's help align?

i have bmr everything and i love it.

I have heard nothing but good things about BMR and their suspension setups.... I plan on putting a set of their LCAs on soon.

BMR is awesome! My control arm bushings started to show excessive wear and I had greased them with the (prothane recommended) synthetic grease. Dennis sent me a new set free of charge, saying that they were aware of a bad batch at one time and based on the time frame, mine were in that run. Awesome guys.

You can also adjust the pinion angle with the adjustable LCA's but it becomes harder because you then have to adjust two things instead of just one.......

Just don't be surprised how much louder it gets inside the cabin, I can hear gear whine now whereas before I couldn't.

i have heard of this Dennis guy from others but not sure who he is? is he in quaility control for BMR?

thanks, i'll prolly go with a non adjustable then as long as it helps with the wheel hop...

i'm good with the noise, as long as it works! lol...

I have the BMR Adj Panhard bar. Had it in the car for over a year and never had an issue with it. BMR has very good products for the S197. You won't be disapointed.

Dennis is one of the sales reps. You will mostly likely deal with him if you call BMR directly.

I have been ordering everything through Summit... i wonder if it is cheaper to go to BMR directly...

 

[Tre06GTP1SC]

It was for me when I ordered my parts. Doesnt hurt to call and ask.

If you dont mind a lil more noise then get the poly/ rod end LCA's that they sell. There is a little more noise but it idnt excessive at all and kills all wheel hop because the rod end is on the axle side and moves with the axle to stop wheel hop. I have them on my DD and they are great. Mine are non adjustable btw.
