I found these on their site and they're a great price. Anyone used these or knows anything about the quality of these?

From other threads, intensepower has a pretty bad rep so far. I say stick with something that is more reputable, obviously SPL is always a good choice.

But, if you want to go the cheap route, Megan has been making quite a name for itself lately..

Only thing I have heard about Megan suspenion arms came for toe links. Owner said the threads where the mounting bracket meets the link shaft rusted after a month. SPL uses a coating and high quality materials (hence the price) that make adjustments easy (and possible) for a long, long time.

I REALLY wanted to test out some cheap suspension arms, but i have yet to skimp yet, so I am pursuing Nismo/Energy Suspension bushings and waiting for SPL multi link. Just a thought.

Well as much as I want the SPL's I'm a very impatient person. So I went with the Megan RUCAS. I'll let you guys know how they are.

You are being sarcastic. Right? Man... 9 months is too long for 5 lug hubs. If not, you must be a super nice guy or laid back.

wow.

we put a lot of hard work into pleasing our customers and when we get 1 or 2 bad feedbacks from customers, we are the worst vendors ever? before slandering our business practice, please have actual experience dealing with us before posting rumors.

if there is ever an issue we do our best to keep our customers up-to-date with their orders. if the product is damaged or has issues we try to remedy the problem with manufactures by getting replacements or substitutes.

bad rep? would a company with a bad rep be able have some of the best deals on nico with many satisfied customers?zerothread?id=132661http://forums.nicoc ... ?id=196094

Bad rep? could a company like ours who depend on reputatiation and image be in business for over 7 years?

I take it that post was directed towards me. I never claimed that I had experience with your products, and never actually commented on the quality of the parts you guys produce. I simply refered the o.p. to a couple of threads that showed the negative side of your products. As a consumer, we have the right to know information that would either encourage us to support your company or discourage us from buying anything you guys produce. Dont get all pissy at me for simply refering a guy with questions to some people who have had bad experiences with your products.

Simply put, I wouldnt trust such a critical suspension part (RUCA) to a company that has bad reputations about producing a damned exhaust. I mean, if flanges are warped and a hanger is off 3 to 4 inches as the second thread I posted suggests, why the hell would I trust the well being of my car to a critical suspension part made by the same company?

If I did have a problem, I would atleast like to know that you guys would take care of it. As those two threads susggest, your customer service sucks.

And again, I have NEVER heard one bad thing about any part that SPL sells. I run thier mulitlink, along with many others on the forum, and have had zero problems. I ewill support and reccomend SPL until I hear a negative thing about thier customer service and the products they produce.

I hope you guys have sorted out the problems, and wish you the best of luck as a business. Forums can be a tough place to please people.
