seems to be an interesting product, maybe some of the other HT members that post on the roadrace/autoX forum might have some experience with them. Post a link over there to this thread.

Seems like a good thing to me. Lowering the car eats balljoints.

hmm, just a side note. after adding this product you'll have to raise your suspension abit to compensate for adding more distance from the lower control arm to the frame.
so it gives you:
-less roll
-more suspension travel
-and i guess a more agressive camber curve as suspension stroke changes.
-less wear on ball joints, sinces its not at a such extreme angle.
-increased corning speed, because of less roll, the suspension geometry relative to the body remains more constant. and IM GUESSING the more agressive camber curve balances with the postive change in camber in cornering.

the only bad thing i can see is
- questionable strenth of member.
- cost
- time

Since my lower balljoints were worn out, I decided to try this product out.

After test driving on the street for one week now, it does all the things that b20zej1 listed. Recommended if you want those listed things on your car.

Here's a tip:
If your car is already too low, make sure to raise your front up about 1cm because this product makes the car sit about that much lower. I learned the hard and bottomed out on my car after going over the speed bump I usually go over before I had this product.

Here are a few pics of this product:
