Torque Solutions rear LCA

Anybody have any experience with the Torque Solutions Rear LCAs? I searched and couldn’t find any posts about them. Would love to hear a review or two.

The reason you can't find any posts is because nobody is willing to buy from that knockoff crap company.

If you would look up the LCA it’s design is actually pretty unique and it’s priced with the RSR and SPL. Thanks for the opinion though. Anyone actually have a review?

Those LCAs are a blatant ripoff of the SPL part. I wouldn't support a company that makes knockoffs of other companies' designs.

With the adjuster that far inboard you’ll have to cut the subframe to adjust it on the car like this.

After having a different lca with aluminum parts fail, steel is real baby, spc or whiteline all the way. Good luck finding “a review” of this, if it didn’t show up with some googling odds are nobody who frequents here is going to post any new info and if they did it would be “it works”.

I don’t understand. The design look different on the TS it has more holes and more open sections.

Current design for each vendor's part. The one you provided was the original SPL design.

Ow yeah they are pretty much the same. I got the for $140 and was super excited. I guess I’ll sell them and get something else.

I was going to get spc, but when ordering trans fluid I looked at lower control arms on ftspeed and they were on sale for $140 and only one in stock so I bought them. I guess I’ll try to sell them.

Nevermind I just got a email that the item was priced wrong and they cancelled all the orders with the torque solutions control arms at that price. Guess I’m going SPC.

I have the SPL, my only comment is that you should get the rear sway bar link and lower damper mounts in before you torque either of them down.

It may be unique to my dampers (JRZ) but the rear bar link doesn't fit into the LCA if the damper bolt is tight.
