I have the MM 3-Point on my car. Install was a PITA! IDK how much of a difference it made because I also put on MM FLSFC at the same time.

Wasted weight But I only like going in straight lines!

Had one on my Vert Fox and it really tightened up the front end, turning into parking lots at an angle didn't tweak the front end in different directions, and stopped all the creaks when taking a hard turn or uneven ground like the parking lot entrance.

Have one and love it. Although, I did Subframes,Springs,Sway's,Control Arms, and Shocks at the same time so I have no idea what did what...

i have the stock one too, nothing negative to say about it. I took it off for drag racing and on the way there the front seemed a bit looser i guess. Nothing you would notice too much though IMO, there are other better things you could get (suspension wise) what suspension do you have and what are your plans?
