Any input on these? http://m.americanmuscle.com/rear-lower-controlarms-7998.html

*Edit* Upon further research I've come to the conclusion that they are a knock-off. Reason being is when one searches via Google the only thing that shows up are vendor ads and forums with people asking if anyone's used them. By the way, they recieved mixed reviews on the forums and pretty decent reviews on the vendor sites.
*Edit* Well I found this http://www.hotpart.com/ It's looking more and more Bangladeshi.

I emailed hotpart and they said their parts are made in house in CA but I still get an overseas vibe from them judging by the website and such.

do y'all make the brake lines too? Just curious, what's with the chinchy website? It looks more like a vendor site than a place selling their own brand. Hotpart.com?? Who is J and who is M and why is there no J&M homepage? Instead when one does a search it makes your product seem like an SVE or SR performance type deal.

I would recommend purchasing our parts through one of our distributors. You will most likely get a better price through them.

about 15 or so years ago, i did buy a set of their CC plates and rear lower control arms for a DD stang I had off a buddy who was parting out his car. They looked like MM knockoffs. The reason I bought them was becuase he practically gave them to me. Pretty funny that you can't locate their main operations.

Yeah I do believe they are and hotpart.com is just another vendor. But other than that mrs. Kennedy..... How were they?

You are reaching Inspector Cluesau. If you want to see if they import anything from China, do a google search for manifests. As far as the company you found... uh no.

"We deal in various items like Footwear, Luggage, Sundry, Umbrellas etc."

Pretty sure J&M and a certain other major Mustang suspension player in San Luis Obispo used to be connected.


I have them on my car, lots of years now work great, no problems.

Hotpart.com (J&M Products) is a stand up company. I used to sell their products for years with our Pro3 brand. They are based in California and make all their products themselves locally in CA.

I vouch for J&M and Brian. Period.
