The BMR LCAs are much beefier, yet they incur no weight penalty because they are chrome-moly (the stockers are 4.5 lbs each, versus 3.4 lbs for the BMRs). In addition, they are available with boxed construction, as well as in an adjustable version (with or without rod ends), for more race-oriented applications. Also note that we chose the optional bushing upgrade, which replaces one of the polyurethane bushings on each LCA with a neoprene one (black). This highly elastic synthetic rubber is much stiffer and more durable than that used by the factory. According to BMR, having Neoprene on one end of the LCA results in nearly as good a performance gain with less road noise than if using poly at both ends.
