Re: Founders Performance Control Arms
i grabbed a set of the single adjustable LCAs & Panhard and they are a poly/rod mix. poly should allow a little more flex for a less jarring daily daily driver while still having the more solid rod end on the other side (in my case at the rear)

Re: Founders Performance Control Arms
I have 35-series 17"s, run double rod-end rear LCAs & a double rod-ended PHB UMI pieces on my daily driver & it isn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. Over a year now with them now & I'm very happy that I chose the fully rod-ended pieces.

Re: Founders Performance Control Arms
i could care less about the ride quality obviously since its solid metal its gonna be rougher....i was worried about strength for a daily driver but thank you guys for putting my fears to rest...now ordering double adjustables

Re: Founders Performance Control Arms
I bought Founders LCA relocation brackets, LCA, and single adjustable panhard rod. I installed them both but I wanted to make sure I installed the panhard rod correctly. How do I know its adjusted correctly? Do I just install them like the stock one? If i did that, wouldn't it be just like I have a stock one? My car is lowered so that's why I got the adjustable one. Thanks

Re: Founders Performance Control Arms
Just got my dbl adjustable lcs'a and panhard kit. Awesome fitment, the only problem I had was they sent the standard busings instead of the offset ones. I contacted them this morning, and they have already contacted me back and have the offsets in the mail to me.
