But I am sure those are the same ones they use on their "Roush" upgraded/sold cars. They are probably better than stock, but more than likely less impactful than poly. A guy from another forum who bought them indicated they did have "Ford" stamped on the bushing, so the general assumption is they would be the same bushings used on the GT500 SVT LCA arms... which are stiffer than stock. Might be a good trade off between ride quality and improved performance??

I'm still up in the air about what LCA to try next. Anyone using the J&M that has the poly ball in the middle and rubber bushings on the outside? Or is it a softer poly bushing on the outside?

I'm about to go to the track with the stock LCA's, hope I don't bend one. I have the Che upper, so hopefully wheel hop won't be that bad.

the steeda seem decent. i have had 2 brands, the lakewood and bmr, i stuck with the adj lakewood. as for uppers, ive cracked 2 already, i lakewood and one bmr. currently im ising the adj steeda uca. I dont plan on changing that one soon. As far as adj lowers, i wish i would have gotten non adj lowers, its just a waste in my opinion.

I heard the same thing about the lowers from several shops. As long as you have a quality adj upper, solid lowers will be sufficient.

The thing with are 3 link is, its the upper that realy changes the pinion angle. As for lowers. i personally thind non adj with relocation brackets would be the best bet. Mine lowers are set to stock length. Now adj the lowers can help with pinion angle, but they also keep the rear end straight. so if one get longer than the other, noew your rear end is krocked

Has anyone used Metco lower control arms? Just curious if anyone has had any problems with them and I'm trying to get some opinions on them. Thanks

I have them and haven't had any problems with them. My mechanic (Justin Burchum) recommends them. I have replaced my Spohn LCAs with Metcos. The bushings failed on the Spohns. So far, the Spohn UCA is holding up.

Good to know this thread has been a help to a few people. I went ahead and bought CHE for upper(adj.) and lowers, installation should be happening sometime next week. Look forward to relaying my experience to all of you

I decided to try out the Roush's and mine arrived on Friday. Although the bushing are rubber, they do look to be fairly beefy and more robust than stock. I plan to put them on this week, which give me an opportunity to visually compare to the stockers... but with all this white stuff on the ground, the "real" test will need to wait until spring!
