So you like them eh? Did you notice a big difference in traction after installation?

Any cons at all?

I can vouch for the UMI stuff. I have a friend that bought a set of arms from them. They are top quality and they were easy to install. he couldnt beat the price at all and they work amazing. I would save the extra money and get UMI and use the exta money for gas

You guys notice any increased road noise with them like the website says. They say drag race only, not for street use. I was thinking of getting the MM adj. uppers and then lowers later. Those torque box re-enforcements look nice though (UMI). I know I might as well put in something like that as well. I need to just buy something and let it sit till I have all the part together, then slap them in all at once. I am rambling now, so I will go away.

lol, thats how I try to do it. Buy a thing here and there until I have it all then install it at once. Well it never happens like that, I get to excited and start installing it early

I had the UMI upper and lower reinforcments on my 94GT, they fit good. The lowers you have to cut a little around the torque box to fit them in but not to bad. The torque box hole isnt as big on 94- as the 79-93's
