good place/price for LCAs?

I'm looking for a set of spherical rod end adjustable LCAs for my SS. NO rubber or poly bushings, rod ends only(yes i know..."race-only" version). i think spohn is like $240 and bmr is around that as well. what else are some good brands to look into and where is a good place to buy them from?, if not directly from the manufacturer. i would also need a matching adjustable panhard with the rod ends as well. I'm getting my new catback this week and my replacement rear springs very soon, so when i put those on, i want to install new LCAs, my relocation brackets, my other ls1 driveshaft,new shocks, and adjust my spohn tq arm all at once.

Thunder Racing has the BMR "Xtreme Duty" LCA's for $274 Â*But thats obviously more then then the Spohn. Â*But the Spohn Performance Tubular Adjustable Rear Lower Control Arms, Combination Polyurethane Bushed/Spherical Rod End, 1982-2002 F-Body are $205.00.

They always seem to have pretty good prices as well as selection.

the UMI adjustable LCAs are like 150 or something and the panhard is 130, and those are with only one side shperical rod end, i want both sides. I guess I'll get spohn parts, i do have their tq arm already so what the hell.

make them yourself. There were quite a few kids that I went to school with who did that. get some DOM tubing, left and right hand taps and dies, then buy your rod ends. Its not hard at all.
