Looks like a decent option for those of us tied to classing where sphericals are extra points

Even more interesting is that you can get them for less than $350.

These look like their original RLCA. Interesting

It does appear that they just came back out with them. I guess they made these in the past huh? Weird.

Looking back, I guess they're different.

Well I just ordered a set since I need to swap out my rear LCA's. Can't beat the price unless the joint is garbage, but there are fixes for that. 326 for the set with shipping. If anything they will just be a stopgap solution for me for now. I spent a lot of money on parts this year I didn't plan on buying

Be very sure that the poly joint rotates easily and doesn't bind after installing. I've had an issue in the past on a different part.

Thanks, I will check it. I plan to pull it and measure it to see if I can find a spherical replacement anyway.

I also ordered a set. We'll see how it goes.

Steinjagr probably has the Heim joint ends that you would want. You would just need to fab up some bushings if you went that route. They also have poly ends as well.

Spherical would be better for performance but how do they hold up to street usage ? What about NVH. Normally I stay away from spherical mounts but maybe I am wrong in my thinking.

I also hate poly bushings as well because once the grease is good everything just binds up lol.

My current LCA’s are on spherical’s already and they are the least of my nvh issues.
