You might want to add some reinforcement to the lower arms as I've read people bending them with brakes such as Brembos lol,also seeing as you have the Powerflex black,I've done it on mine but car still off road so don't have any feedback yet.

This is what I did to mine anyway,welded 3mm plates (thickest one I had on hand) on each side and also added some welds on the inside not shown in the pictures, hopefully that prevents whatever the new powerflex design was made for.
Also I have threaded the hole they left at the top for some grease nipple I don't see any other use for it? Unless for the excess grease to come out during installation.

That's how powerflex should have made them in the first place.

What idiot at powerflex thought it would be acceptable to send out the original folded metal shite.
