Default Function & Form LCA Bushings

Are the bushings that come in Function & Form lower control arms comparable to OEM quality? I had to get Blox LCAs like 3 years ago because of the situation I was in, which demanded immediate LCAs and those were the only ones available locally. Yes I know the bushings suck *****, and mine have been shot for over a year. So I'm tired of it, and do not want to spend $200 on Function 7 or Skunk2 LCAs. and I threw out my OEM ones, or I would have just kept them and got new OEM bushings =(

Haha, yeah I did. Those are Function 7 LCAs, I already know they are the only after market brand worth buying. I am asking about Function & Form because they are a lot cheaper.

No, the only brand that comes close to OEM quality is function7.

Wait another week and buy them instead.

I've seen dozens of posts with people with function form, skunk2, blox, ksport LCAs with torn out bushings.

Ok cool, just needed assurance that they all suck. I wish I kept my OEM ones with blown bushings.. now I feel that it will be a waste of money buying used OEM ones (most likely with worn bushings) then new OEM bushings. I will probably be getting close to the price of F7s. At least with F7s you can bolt up a sway bar nicely (only advantage over OEM).

That's the reason I sent you to that link. And let me understand. You KNOW the F7 are the only aftermarket brand worth buying but you are considering the F&Fs because they are cheaper?

P.I.C has good rear lower control arms as well, they use rubber bushings comparable to oem and are very affordable. been running mine for over 2 years and still look new.

they're cheaper because they'll break easier.

also F7s were in an accident at 40ish iirc. and all it did was bend a little. didn't even break. you'd have to search for the thread on it but its around here somewhere.

F7's or OEM. nothing else.
