I finally got my J&M LCAs installed. They were a major pain to install and get torqued but I must say DAYMN those things feel great. It seems like the car just begs to go hard when I punch it and they still ride smooth just crusing around. Now to dragrace to see how they help or hinder straight line performance

They worth $108.64? haha. I was thinking of these or BMR but if these are good quality, I might as well go for the cheaper brand.

I have them and they have been on since last fall - no noise and the car still feels good and tight.  And after putting them on I drove straight to the track, no wheel hop and shorter 60' times right away.  You will like them I'm sure.  It is a lot easier to install them if you have access to a lift, but a little difficult to "pre load" them when torquing them when you use the lift.


I have a couple of pictures of them when I put mine in:



And this is a couple of weeks back when I painted my calipers - you can see they held up well through a very tough winter and about 15,000 miles:

None of you had to do relocation brackets because you are all on stock springs right?

I can't just pop LCA's on because I got Sportlines..

How hard is it to put on the relo brackets?

Thanks.
