    Why can't you recommend H-Sports? I'm looking for your input.

    Way, my bad. When you're old like me sometimes reading on your droid is a bit difficult. And if you think that's bad....you ought to see me drive!

    So, why do you like/recommend them so much more than the other brands you carry?

    I've never had an Hsport fail, the TSW ones are good too, but as for other brands I've seen them all fail, and as early as only being on a car for a week before the joints became loose.

    I raced dirt track for years and we used these rods. I dont know why they wouldnt work for these cars and they are a hell of a lot cheaper and quality is #1.

    AFCO: "SWAGED STEEL TUBE - 16"" (THREADED 1/2"")"

    These are also used on indy cars and Nascar. Would just need to know the length before you order.

    Check out Ireland Engeering's Ver.2 rear arms.
    I have had them on my 05'S for 40k and have had no noise , no braking nuts
    loose. Been on track a few times and see's 15 miles of canyon driving every day.
    H-Sport's are good but have been known to loose-up under hard driving conditions.
    Beware spherical rod ends! Smoothest operation , but short life span and
    lots of noise for street use.
    Hope this helps, Scott B.

    Thanks for the input INU and Welcome to MA!

    The IE links look like a nice beefy design, but the endlinks are blue. :(
