New Energy Suspension release
 
Just a heads up guys, I stumbled across Energy Suspensions most recent releases. I am in no way affiliate with Energy Suspension or the websites I found the parts on, but I wanted to spread the word to the community. The pricing looks to be very competitive to Whiteline and similar. Im guessing the lower pricing is due to a 2 year warranty as opposed to a lifetime warranty offered by other companies. I could not find final pricing or pictures for the front control arm, but I have provided all other information I could dig up.

What I find most interesting is the pricing for the rack and pinion set and the shifter bushing. I assume these two items will be hot-cakes for the company. Even the rear sway bar end link set pricing is killer.

The lower price is because it's just poly and steel and they're still making money hand over fist for each they sell. The reason they won't sell a lot is replacing all of those bushings is a lot of work.

That said, Energy has been around, quite possibly longer than the names you know better. If I were in the market I would absolutely choose it over higher priced options. I bought a set for my WRX and only ever got around to about half of them.

Energy makes great products! We offer the entire line. Those pieces make a noticeable difference in the suspensions response. My favorite is always the shifter bushings for the crisp shift feel they provide.
