itsme Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 I just wanted to know what you guys thought of them before I buy them.

Spinjockey Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Cheaper than welding the brackets back on! Cusco and AVO now make similar brackets (though I don't think Cusco sells theirs separately). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Could someone post pics of them? I never seen pics of the actual brackets. The pic on Cobb website is useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boostjunkie Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 They fit reasonably well and seem well designed for the job they are intended to do. Let's face it though... they are brackets... it ain't exactly rocket science! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsme Posted November 24, 2006 Author Share Posted November 24, 2006 Is one company better then the other or are all of them about the same. Which one has the best price? Thanks. I plan on getting the bracket soon to finish my suspension, I have install new wheels an tires, H-tech spring and whiteline F and Rear adj swaybars. I have already ordered my Speedpro LCA bushings and should be getting them soon.

itsme Posted November 26, 2006 Author Share Posted November 26, 2006 Cobb I thought they would look like the AVO type. Are these as good as the AVO type.

Guest Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Dunno but given the angle of the support I now tend to think they may be actually better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinjockey Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 One concern I have about the AVO, which may be completely unfounded, is that the cyclinder that the subframe bolt goes through *could* be deformed by compression enough that you may not be able to remove the subframe bolt. I doubt it'd happen but with this isn't an issue with the cobb/cusco brackets. But this should make the AVO bracket transmit more of the force to the subframe than the Cobb which has a longer piece that can deform and allow the bracket to flex.

VTGT Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Xenonk has been on stock brackets and endlinks for 2+ years with a cusco rsb. Are there actually incidents of these things breaking. With Xenonks track time, they seem to be fairly strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Xenonks track time, they seem to be fairly strong. No doubt he pushes the car. However.... Perhaps, since Xenoks spring rates are so hard the sway bars work less, since there would be less deflection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RADON Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 That's my picture and it's the supplied grease that came with the kit. There are grease fittings on the brackets that are used for regular maintenance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
