    I got one of these last week, from this guy, it sucked. I could not get it on all the way and then I could not get it off! I was afraid of stripping the bolts so i hacksaw'd it off and threw it in the trash!

    I guess it's worth it to go brand name...

    I'm going to have to go with these guys. I got one and it was an absolute pain in the ass to get on. I did eventually get it on, but couldn't tell that it did anything.

    Well, there is no question that they are not highly crafted works of art. They are gruesomely welded, which is why they don't fit very well. That said, I don't think they do much worse of a job holding the tops of your struts together than a $300 name brand bar. With two minutes work and a metal file mine fits fine and I felt a difference when I installed it on what was then a stock vehicle. They definitely make a bigger difference per dollar than the aluminum shifter bushings lots of people seem to think are so great.

    The big brakes are decent, but not like Brembo's obviously, but thats why they are priced the way they are.. But i am sure they help a bit, but nothing to special, more for cosmetics to answer you correctly..
