I hear good things about these.

They also have an extra gusset behind the ball-joint mount.

No I don't work for them

The top one looks stouter but the bottom one could be adjusted without taking the ends/cam bolt assys out of the subframe

I use Firm Feel's. Extra positive castor & good quality workmanship. The downside is that if you have to replace the bushings it will be a good deal more difficult than it is with the stockers.

So another option to ponder (firm feel)

Robert your right SPC looks like it would be quick and easy to install and have lined up. not sure all those bolts look as strong as I would like?
but on the other had QA1 looks a little stouter and you would only have to go through the big set up once.

Course the Firm fell may be the stoutest may be important at 130



any more thoughts and real life results?

I put a set of RMS UCA on my 71 demon (race only) along with the set of adjustable struts rods. The car has never been so consist...great weight transfer..

also with the increase caster dialed into the front end the car is more stable.

They heimed ones sure aren't a waste on a drag car.

Look up this guy he does nice work and the parts are solid.
