Specifically there rear lowers. I was looking at the ones with an adjustable spring perch. There like $100 cheaper than the MM ones. So I'm wondering if anyone has them and can comment or if you have any suggestions....heres the link to them

Wow, thats how much I paid for my non-adjustable MM arms. They do appear to have the 3-piece polyurethane bushing on the frame end, which is good. They're just an exact copy of the MM arms. The only thing I have heard of is some companies use inferior quality teflon liners in the spherical bushings that wear-out over time. But at least you can replace them if needed. Seems like a good buy though IMO.

Yea the only difference I can see is that around the spring perch these arms have 2 pieces mitered where as the the MM ones have a continuous tube with a bend in it. Bends are technically stornger but stang suspension has a good return policy and at that price I think I will give them a shot. I just wante'd some first hand experience with there finish, weld quality, etc...Ya know the stuff that really matters.

Ah yes, good eye. While the bent tube MM use might be a better design, I think you'd probably take out your torque boxes before doing any damage to the arms. They're the same design as the Pro3 ones:

Alot of guys use these and I haven't heard any real complaints about them. They should work fine.

I bought CC plates from them last year... they were MM brand, but Josh over there was really helpful. Let us know if you get them...I could use them for myself.!
