Alright, who has the best deal on BMR or Steeda? My whiteline is coming out. Not taking any chances with this thing even if mine does look alright.

We sell the BMR and UPR Products

You mean... like whiteline?

UPR makes cheap parts for as long as I've known.

UPR products are on some of the quickest cars in the country. Both BMR and UPR are pretty stout.

Nobody I know uses whiteline in the racing world. I've been 4.90's in my old mustang with those "cheap" upr parts.

Yep

One? There are three already and more and more will pop up, all people have to do is check theirs. Not sure why you are acting like whiteline pays you. People are not bashing them, just reporting failures, you want to talk about xyz start another thread and bash them to justify these failures. It's early still but I'm hoping to hear from whiteline today as I would like my money back so I can purchase another bracket and mount.

Ford doesn't give you your money back if your car breaks down, they would fix it. Be realistic.

Who are you again? Another fanboi who can't understand what people are showing from a brand you like? Do go away mad, just go away. 270 dollars is nothing. Social media and forums on the hand go a very long way.

Looks to be the problem of cheap/thin material usage. Obviously for a carbon peice to crack like that they are using the wrong material for that application.

Really glad I went with CHP for my suspension

ForgotMyUsrname how much is Whiteline paying you to look like a moron and back them up? You've not had one post with ANY info to back up why this UCA isn't a total POS?

We have posted on other threads that we believe their brackets on the uppercontrol arm are to thin causing a safety concern and this is not the first time we have seen this. Our brackets are nearly twice as thick, rigorously tested and race proven time and time again.

Again, straight line doesn't mean squat to some of us who like to turn from time to time.

So people who like to turn want thinly made products that are weak? I've looked at a lot of people's control arms since this thread, upr, racecraft, team z, trz, and all have a lot thicker stuff with more bracing.

That is why I have used, and recommend, Steeda's products since the 90's. Daily drivers to 1,000+ hp cars they have had me covered. :beer:

All this up in arms crap, and your life is danger talk is uneccessary guys. Stop premoting fear and premote resolution. You drive a high performance machine capable of higher then average speeds, chances are you drive it that way from time to time, or you wasted your money. There is more risk of harm just driving these cars the way they are meant to be driven, then harm from a parts failure such as this. There could be a bad batch of these out or this could be isolated to a few incidents, these issues will have to be investigated. I have a whiteline uca and if i see a problem with it i will get a refund from whiteline and choose another unit, simple and done! It really is nothing more then that. In the world of high performance I already accepted the fact that parts fail from time to time, so let's not overeact to what has been shown here! Let's not cry and moan like women, but rather deal with the issue head on and solve the problem like men!

I still plan on pulling my white line UCA out now. I'm not chancing anything. Although I do have their lca, watts link and relocation brackets and they are stout pieces
