best place to buy suspension parts....
upgrading suspension just wondering where some of you guys went for your rigs and where the better deals are.... BMR seems to be alot more expensive than the other brands so ill prob steer clear of that... thanks for any help...

I predict a quick lock on this one...
But to be all mod like, you should really check out some of the sponsors and see their prices

JS Performance is a UMI dealer.
Talk to SSP, TMR, and Whiplash to see what they have available and what they can do for you price wise.

i seem to prefer spohn for whatever reason. paul, hardcorez28, got me the lca's i wanted and was very easy to deal with. also two tranny mounts, which i will be needing another since none of them made it to my car 
edit: whoops, don't know if he is still a sponsor. hope rpm is still doing good.

In the drag racing world it seems BMR has the fastest stock style suspension cars... That's gotta say something.... Though I've dealt with Spohn a few times and couldn't be happier with them.

The problem with BMR's bushing is that it is too thin and is just meant to be a hinge point thats it. It really doesnt allow the axle to articulate in the arch that it suppsoed to for everyday driving. Where as Spohn uses a bigger poly bushing that allows for more flex for the everyday stuff.
Or ya can go with what I have the Poly/Rod lca's.. The quietness of poly but has most of the performance of rod ends.
OR
Get these...... click

To answer the above question....RPM is alive and well.....more resto work than I can actually keep up with right now. Getting ready to expand but strategically planning how.
