[QUOTE="BMR Tech, post: 14690670, member: 124691"] I would like to provide some quick input/info. All LCA are not the same, nor created equal. The "grunt" you hearing, is due to the LCA not having grease fittings. I was under the impression everyone finally hopped on that wagon, but I guess not? We learned many years ago, grease fittings are a must on a Poly Bushed Pivot point. The performance of the LCA, are not all the same. There are several factors, but the primary one is the bushing design. Our Poly LCA feature 95 Durometer bushings. To my knowledge, they are stiffer than the rest. I think most companies who use Energy Suspension bushings, use 83-85 Durometer pieces.. We design all of our bushings for our components.....not just use an "off the shelf" bushing. In doing so, you can also imagine - we test bushings: ours and others. The stiffer the bushing....the better it fights off wheel-hop. We have thousands of customers, GM and Ford, who have been able to eliminate wheel hop with only and LCA upgrade. Of course, it is not guaranteed...some people have to further modify. I recommend a good set of shocks, a new set of LCA with grease fittings, and completing the control arm upgrades with a new UCA/Mount. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
