Firm Feel, if you plan on any daily driving duty skip anything with spherical rod ends, they don't last on the street and anyone that says they do, really doesn't drive it much...

The SPC design offers the most caster/camber variable adjustment and WITHOUT having to relocate the mounting point as the Hotchkis design requires (which is not legal in SCCA Solo AX class E/SP; if you someday run SCCA CAM class, then it doesn't matter what you install or how its done).

DELRIN bushings are long-lasting (that's what I have for my UCAs now), and will be installing them into my LCAs (rcvd from Firm Feel).

Devil -- Global West (Calif) made the Delrin UCA bushings for me a long time ago (~30+ years ago)... still a-ok!... and greasable.... not sure if GW still offers them or would make them for you.

Also Mitch, they use Delrin bushings and no heims. I wouldn't use Heim joints in anything that saw street time. Harshness, vibration and early failure? Yeah...Where do I sign???

Once you get the SPC upper control arms you will never want to use anything else again. I mean why would you not want the ones that offer the most adjustment range and are the simplest to change settings on....
