The Spohn stuff is top notch quality with a great price and excellent customer service to back it all up. My entire suspension is Steve Spohn and I could not be happier with it.

Awesome topic man! I was thinking of making a topic with the same question, Hotchkis or Spohn. However I was going to ask it on Sub Frame Connectors, so what do guys think in the SFC area, whos better?

I think Spohn's stuff is very nice as well..... I really cannot justify paying more for the Hotchkis stuff over the Spohn stuff for you if that is the crux of your question.

And BTW, BMR makes bolt-in LCA relocation brackets. I have them on my car and they are very nice pieces that can be welded in later if you feel the need to... (I also have a friend with a TTA that runs the BMR bolt in ones and he has been very happy with them).
