I don't think anyone who bought a set has installed them yet, so no idea on the ride quality.

I don't know on the LCA's. The fabricator was going to see about demand for the UCA's first.

Thanks

I would like a set but I just shot the preverbial wad on the car and won't have any casheesh to burn on it until the end of summer/fall sometime, just give him a heads up for me if it will help move him to the lowers.

Id buy uppers if youd made the lowers like a GM LCA to rid the strut rods
Just not sure how much wider you can make the lowers compared to stock

Bump
Would the fabricator be up to changing the uppers a tad? Id really like an option to accept aftermarket Howe tall ball joint/nascar screw in bj option
Found a slick design for lowers too vs the narrow lower / strut rod combo


This is what ride tech did with the ford incorporated strutrod and lca as 1 piece

Whatever happened with this project? Fabricator went to a lot of trouble. I hope it was worth his while.

The fabricator was compensated for his time, but he decided against producing more of these.

Thanks

Thanks for the update, Scott.  They turned out nice.  Too bad he didn't want to make any more of them.
