PA and AJE are the top two. UPR makes a good quality one also. D&D is the poorest design out. D&D changes your geometry the most. Also, the top header companies (like Kooks for example) will thell you their larger performance headers will fit any aftermarket K-member except D&D. D&D is one of the cheapest out. That's why it's a big seller.

I bought the complete kit from UPR. It has the control arms, K member and the coil over kit. I also bought their caster camber plates and this is a very nice kit and a great price too.

i have had no issues with the D&D K member i have. and its not hte cheapest out there. alot of ppl use them and dont have issues with them at all. in the end they all are basically the same except for some bracing.

D&D didnt change any geo on my car

UPR, IMHO looks like the best thing out there. Dunno if you can use it and still run stock arms thoug.
My experience with QA-1 sort of leaves me wondering if any of there stuuff is ok.......
