Spohn = Excellent!

Excellent products, good prices, and my order arrived in 3 days. He even sent me an email with the tracking numbers that night after I ordered.
I look forward to doing business with him again.

Yes, Spohn is awesome!

I will have about 70% of my chassis full of Spohn parts!
I would have had the Spohn SFCs and Steering brace,
but they weren't available last summer 2002! ....
during my suspension upgrade project.

Anyways, I have these right now:
Spohn LCAs, adjustable Panhard rod, front and rear sway bars.

In the future:
Spohn crossmember, torque arm and driveshaft.

I may just get the Spohn adjustable steering brace and sell
my Global West brace.

yeah, Spohn stes teh standard.

if you look under my car, you'll see a lot of red parts with Spohn logos all over them.

i live in syracuse, ny, and last year i took a trip down to his shop (like 4 hours) just to pick up some parts...its a real nice place. very clean, and hes a great guy.

without a doubt, the best there is.

Yes I am so happy with that article to prove to various people that you stitch weld those subframes ever 6 inches. Far stonger than other types that only weld at the ends.

Ya... my SSM (RIP) SFC's came with instructions to "stitch" weld them into place every 6 inches. I felt more comfortable with the square SFC's (old spohn or SSM) than the tubular, but I have no factual data from which I base my opinion.

Hey Guys,
Steve gets far too many good comments on this site...and here's another one.Ive just had a torque arm,cross member,and a load of used parts for me to do a T56 conversion.
The quality of the parts,especially the adjusable torque arm is excellent.Earlier in the year I bought a set of Tokico Illuminas which on ly took 4 days to arrive.
All this and I live in the UK!!!!!!!!1

cheers

I ordered my SFC's online, got them in like 2-3 days Very well packaged with good instructions. They used alot of bubble wrap, considering that they are solid pieces of metal, they did more then they had to in order to safely ship the SFCs, the packaging was beyond what anyone else would do.

I will be buying all my future suspension parts from Spohn.
