I like the brake cable holder over what BMR suggests or has on their non billet ones and that I can make 'em blue. Steeda seems over-priced for everything, haven't looked at J&M at all. That they are maintenance free is a big deal to me as well.
If I was going billet, BMR would probably be my first choice then Steeda.
I don't have Corona, but a 6 pack of Sam Adams White Ale, it's tastes twice as good as Corona, would that count ??

If and when you do your PH and PH support I'd say consider Steeda because they're actually cheaper than the competition. Plus I don't think CHE makes a PH support.
Any specific reason why you and Leo are looking at adjustable UCA's?
Forget it.
Baby got too much back.
Question Leo, why beef up the rear suspension when you literally took off your front sway bar?
I'm pretty sure your front end handling will suffer, while your rear stays planted on the twisties.

Done deal.
Blue CHE LCAs. It takes 7 days for the parts then another 3 for shipping. Install party Feb 16-17 ??
Will get the UCA and Relo from PMP, they have a CHE sale going on right now.
Woo-Hoo... finally get to wrench again on my car.

Seeing that you're more function over looks, get the black ones.

That's what I would do too if and when I swap out the PHB stuff.

I've said before I'll say it again the front swaybar is over rated. Remember I did the a-arm support so that's got to help something.
Next time I take the stang down I'm going to let you drive it so you can see first hand the front swaybar doesn't help much if at all.

Great Info. I certainly liked how much better they looked when compared to the stock items during your install. I'll keep them in mind

I want to make darn sure my fat-azz doesn't cause ANY problems when I put the DS in, if I gotta adjust the pinion angle I want to be prepared. If I don't need it I won't do it right away.

Me driving your car on the streets won't really tell me too much about about having or removing the sways. We'll need to swap cars out on the canyon roads for the real test.
On second thought.. Leo + 1st time Manual shifting + canyons =
Yeah, I'm with ya Leo, who needs front sway bars!
(it's only money, you can make more later. )

From CHE blue powdercoating is only 10 bucks... so what the heck. But it's still 30 buck more than PMP. Still WTF. UCAs....

Better than none at all
Leo, I would have to drive your car on a familiar road to believe you, sorry. If anything I want to eventually put the FRPP sways on, which may be the same in the rear, diameter, but is way beefier up front.

Next time I'm down there we'll go to a "familiar road" so you can see for yourself. Seriously if Tom the most **** of people didn't notice a difference I doubt either of you will either. I guess I'll just have to say "we'll see".

Leo- We're just bustin' ur ***** on the sway. With the saved weight off the front end and sticky tires, you may finally be able to keep up with me off the line.
fyi Brian...

Yeah, yeah.. we talked about it before, but having a front (anti-)sway bar MUST be of benefit when driving on the twisties. Your A-Arm helps somewhat, but it's was never designed to replace the sway bar.
Me driving your car on the streets won't really tell me too much about about having or removing the sways. We'll need to swap cars out on the canyon roads for the real test.
On second thought.. Leo + 1st time Manual shifting + canyons =

Leo's got a point there Brian.
