Those are crap!! The front bushing went bad on someone I know and the Allen head bolt backed out while driving on another set and the spring almost fell out of the car. When I pulled the car apart the spring perch was sitting off to the side about to fall!! If I can suggest anything I would be to use Locktite on the Allen bolts that hold the spring perches on!!!

It's common knowledge to road racers that Granatelli parts are crap. They may look like MM parts but they are far from it when looked at closely.

Given the amount of negative criticism that this company has received around the larger national forums over the years, it's a surprise that they are still in business.
I would spend a few bucks more and go with MM.

Granatelli takes Maximum Motorsports stuff and has them 'duplicated' in India by some low end fab shops. I have seen too many failures and noisy parts from them to ever purchase anything from GMS. Junk.

I used a set of their uppers/lowers for about a month before I literally ripped the bushings out of them on a few launches. Contacted them and they sent me out a complete set of replacement bushings.
Maximum Motorsport uppers/lowers is the only thing I will install in my cars or customers.
You get what you pay for !!!

I have the uppers and lowers in my car 2+ years... No problems here I used locktite on everything... But I feel that I cheaped out so I'm going to buy MM ones very soon.
