Anybody running these? If so, how's the feel from the stock tension rods. If not, what tension rods would you recommend me getting?

Don't know about them, but I've been using Megan RUCAS, traction rods, and toe control arms. It's been over a year and about 6,000 miles later. I haven't had any issues and they do what they're suppose to.

It was a pretty nasty hit , and all the arms jammed into the sub frame.

Their tension rods suck. I can't speak for their other arms... but for sure don't get their tc rods.

I can't tell you how many times I've seen bent megan tc rods... well maybe I can. 3!

The most recent one... my cousin. And he doesn't even drift or anything! I think he told me he hit a mean old pot hole on the freeway at 75mph... and his alignment was never straight after the incident. So we check it, and found a bent tc rod (bent where the threading into the arm is).

I don't know if they have revised versions or whatnot... and If they do have different versions, I can't tell you what version my cousin had... but I wouldnt recommend their tc rods.

damn.. I shoulda taken a pic before throwing it away... it woulda been epic!
