Seems like a lot of binding with all those poly mounts. No worse than leafs I suppose
325 huh...that mite be a bit much for my taste...but thanks. Why do the poly mounts bind so much...that makes me thinks that the metal sleeves are either cut too short or that the installers arent greasing things up properly.....thoughts ????

Just look at the lower control arms as if the rear end where in the car, no uppers, nothing else. Your standing in the back of the car. Keep the left tire on the ground, lift the right tire.They will bind from the twisting the suspension will normally see driving. Like I said though, probably no worst than leafs. Just when spending so much money that's something I wouldn't want.

This is true indeed...upon examination I am seriously just fabbing up my own version of this kit myself. I can get some good tubing, thick metal for the plates and shock-mounts/axle-mounts and just go to town. Doing it myself not only helps the overall budget, it also allows me to use chromoly heim joint ends for a zero bind high strength option.
