- TODAY I COMPARE THREE TOP PERFORMANCE SUSPENSION COMPANIES UMI, QA1 & BMR
WHICH KIT WILL BE THE RIGHT KIT/SET UP FOR MY LS SWAPPED 86 MONTE CARLO SS ???
ALL OPINIONS ARE HELPFUL THANKS - Авто та транспорт
Went full BMR w/ single adjustable QA1 Shocks on my 87 Grand National, zero complaints
i suggest QA1 level 2, you re going to need those coilovers to raise the car for 24-26 inch wheels, and you need at least them upper control arms if they adjustable in length because big rims will pigeon toe with oem factory upper control arms, plus it comes with 1 inch taller and stronger ball joint, plus get like 14-16 inch springs,
Thanks Bro Ima look into everything you just told me
The single adjustables are just for ride height the double adjustables are for ride height and the bounce of the car so if you hittin that bih the bounce of the car would be controlled because u can adjust the bounce thats what i got for mine but im still building. Its tons of videos on double adjustables
Go with the double adjustable ?
I have a BMR full kit for my 86 SS, rides amazing! $2049 no tax or shipping charge
I went with Umi & Qa1. I will Try BMR on this 72 Cutlass I just bought.
upper control arms need to be adjustable at least, UMI 4056-1-R 64-72 A-Body Front Upper A-Arms, Adjustable, Red, and viking coilover 14" springs and u good 24x9 wheel and 2-1/2 wheel spacers with hubcentic lip
I'm in the Chicago area as well have a 1986 regal currently running a 350 chevy 400 trans thinking of ls swapping and building something similar just wondering about a ball park budget also just recently heard of the shop you going with thinking of doing the same subscribed also
Thanks Bro I appreciate it. It all depends on how you want your build. Your best bet is to set up a appointment with Chris at StreetCar Headquarters He cool asl. He will run down different options & pricing of all parts & labor then you could make your decision on if you want to go the LS Route.
Have an '83 T-Type GN, done a brake upgrade with the 2000 Blazer hubs/spindle....just wondering if this will work with the BMR Upper and Lower control arms?
Umi got all the shit the others have and more and the best.
Which one you think?
I have level 2 bmr red on my el camino, its a night and day compared to stock. Great quality and simple to install.
Thanks I ordered the UMI stage 2 kit with QA1 shocks. I will try BMR on my next build. I was close to ordering the kit for the Monte Carlo I just couldn't find a lot of reviews on BMR products
@ssfamily5422 I also did the jeep steering shaft and gear box. Its a whole new car, handles and stops so much better with pretty much stock brakes.
Do you have pics of the Elco with the bmr set up. I’m thinking of going that route for my Elco as well
@@bbuffington yes I can send you some if you like?
i meant 1.5 hubcentric wheels spacers
ok
Yes please. Appreciate you bro
