umi products review

i recently installed the bolt on lcarbs and t-5/700r4 trans cross member. the driverside bracket was a little challenging to line up but i got it on. i dont know why as both the bracket and shock mount did not appear bent. however i had to unbolt the shock mount bolts. to get them on, although the directions said differently.
the transmount went up and all i had to do was thread in the front bolts.
i am satisified with both items and the installation. after a few test runs i have to say they were worth adding. i will continue to purchase from umi.

Good to hear!

The relocation brackets can be challenging at times... the sway bar binds the rear end and makes it hard to move sometimes. Also any rust build up on the stock control arm mounts makes it tough to get our bracket over them sometimes.

But I am glad to hear you like everything

Re: umi products review

Does UMI or anyone for that matter make a strut tower brace that will fit with a SuperRam? Yes, I know it would have to be the thickness of a piece of paper, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

Re: umi products review

I agree. I didn't buy any frame or any SFC's. I just bought an UMI performance pistol grip shifter handle last February I think. Well, it fits just right to the stock shifter and very comfy to use
