Default solid/solid vs. solid/poly LCA's

Hey guys. I mistakenly ordered a set of the UPR solid/solid LCA's for my '02 GT. I meant to order the solid/poly version as i think the solid/solid are too "race" for my needs. I will more than likely never hit a track with this car. just looking to improve the stock sloppiness/ wheel hop and take corners decently.

My question is how much harsher are the solid LCA's vs the solid/poly? Is it worth the hassle of returning them? Would not having a rear anti-roll bar kill the street use?

this is what I wanted

Are they really that different??? Thanks for any info.

I run solid solid, my team z use 1 heimjoint then a metal coller on the axle end. Increase NVH is what you will see, but you will see a good amount of NVH with the solid polys as well.

^ agreed!

Either of those LCA's will work fine, but you are just introducing more NVH than needed, based on your needs. If you can return them for the ones you wanted, I would do so.
