Was wondering if anyone has had sucess w/the kit? Am I right in thinkin that this replaces the stock torque arm and lca's? Is this kit better than say Spohn adj. torque arm and adj. lca's? Will they clear a dual-cat car? Thanks For the imput later guys Derrick

Hey, I too was thinking about getting the SSM's because they seem to be more hardcore and a bigger improvement for your money than the Hotchkis kit. Also they should cause the rear of my car to rise in a launch instead of squat, which forces the wheels against the pavement. Anyways, I'm looking at a Summit catalog and it says the lift bars eliminate the lower control arms and the rubber bushings. They apparently don't have bushings so I guess the ride in the rear will be pretty harsh, but I think you still hafta use the stock panhard bar etc.
