stance suspension arms good?

[One_love_silvia]

i know their coils are good, but ive searched, and the only reviews i come upon is the fricken coils. does anyone know if their suspension arms and whatnot are good as well? theyre pretty damn expensive, and i know stance's focus is mainly on drifting, and 240's are a large part of their product availability.

i was just wondering if anyone knew about the quality of the parts? also, they just came out with some front tension rods, and theyre about 30$ more than spl ones. anyone wana chime in on that please?

thanks.

Never mind.

They aren't bad. I have all the links they make, and am pretty happy with them. I can take more pictures if you would like.

think we could get some closer pics of the welds and such? for the most part, stance i believe is cheaper. the only piece more expensive ive found is the new tension rods, and i recently just found them to only be abt 10$ more now.

Sure, I will post some tomorrow as I have to go to work in a bit.

Yea, Im interested in pics also. I'm thinking about buying Stance just because I have been really happy with my coilovers. Not because I think it's better than SPL or anything.

made in america with american materials


your not just getting the best arms on the market you are supporting our economy and american small buisness! fuck stance all their shit is made in taiwan (except the bearings)

SPL is a great company but because these are made in America, they are automatically better? Stance has reputable parts and there are people out there that would swear by their suspension arms as well as SPL.

[MidwestMyriad]

Seems between PBM, Stance, and SPL the only major difference is brand loyalty. All are made to go low, some people just like one brand over the next. I'm sure different bearings are used, but to each his own, there is only so many ways to make an adjustable arm.

America FUCK YEAH!

[Chamb-O]

the welds and tubing fits look like shit on stance
SPL has a much higher quality of manufacture IMO

[Freddy]

I have the RUCA, got them went they first came out. They seem very solid, but then there was a revision. Someone called me from Touge factory (belive it was mike) said they made improvement said they were stronger, sent me the new one free of charge. I would buy all they're arems base off this experience.

Hasn't anybody noticed that Stance links are surprisingly similar to SPL links.
check out SPL's website then look at Stance's links on their website.
They look identical to me and both use Aurora bearings!

[Hoffman5982]

How much variation can there be with a control arm? They have to be the same shape and specs for the car they are designed for. Really?

They look similar because Stance ripped off our designs.

Quality of construction differs. The arms, even though most are relatively the same design, have to hold up to the forces they experience. Thicker tubing, better welding, and stronger bearings is what separates the good from the bad suspension arms.

and hybrid adjusters...those things are really nice to get a precise alignment

[omgRWDgoodness!]

I have Stance toe rods, no complaints here. They do the job they're supposed to do.

[Chamb-O]

Let me rephrase this
for such similar msrp you would be a fool to buy Stance unless you got a pretty good deal on Stance over SPL

the Stance stuff is pretty nice, especially when there is so many junk aftermarket links...but SPL is better

[word sux]

send me a pm I have a buddy who is a distributor for spl. He will prolly give you a discount he just told me he needs to move more inventory.



to anyone who says "they look the same". Let me go get a really cheap piece of metal then get a piece of billet aluminum and paint them both black. Then I take a picture of them.


can you honestly tell me which is which??? give me a break. anyone with half a brain knows that these brands who outsource their work to taiwan and china to be mass produced use inferior materials and have very little quality control. yes because its made in america in small batches it IS a quality product.

You can make shitty products in America in small batches if the materials sucks; you can mass produce a great products in China if the materials is good quality.

QC does not mean shit when there is no quality to begin with.

I do not see you driving a made in America, made in small batches automobile...

Get back to the OP's question. I believe Stance makes quality products. Are they the best? No...

[word sux]

like I said if you guys shoot me a pm and are serious about buying arms I will give you my dudes number he could prolly hook you up with a price for spl arms at least equal to the stance arms.

[DreamN]

I haven't seen the arms personally nor have I read actual reviews on them so can't really comment.

word sux, I think they're jumping the gun and assuming to much. Simply because a company outsources doesn't mean the quality is lacking all the time.

Also, not being biased just because I run Stance coils as I run SPL arms as well.

[word sux]

I don't trust any car part that is made by someone makeing less then $1 per hour

[blueshark123]

If i have a Chinese baby would it be inferior to an American baby

If you have a American baby made in China, is it inferior?

[huffandpuff00]

I have the RUCA's and they are good quality. The welds look good and as everyone has said the bearing are quality. Ill put up pictures tomorrow...

IDK how much the SPL RUCA's are but I got my STANCE ones for $220 shipped(free shipping with other parts I bought). Are they really worth that much?, probably not!

Con: RUCA angle is very little. (Angle that helps with low car) PBM greater angle.

[One_love_silvia]

if we had a side by side comparison of close up shots of both i bet it would make it easier
