Default J&M Rear Control Arms. Yes or No???

In the market for lower and possibly upper control arms, have you guys had experience with these?? they're a good price from AM but are they crap? I'm push about 380hp and 420lbs with juice on 410's... need it to hook. - p.s. i have no other suspension parts.

I always ask myself when buying parts for something, ....Is it a "Mustang" company?

Is it a company that deals stricktly with what I'm buying for.

They may or maynot be what your looking for, I know nothing about J&M, but do know when companys are strickly for one car, most of the bugs have been tweeked with the products they sell.
I'm sure anything you replace will be better at handling 380HP.

Boxed lowers are really all alike there are little differences in the regular boxed lower ones. However judging from past experience with there parts (stainless brake lines, and subframe connectors) i would pass on those. For inexpensive lowers look at Lakewood i have there lower control arms and got them cheap and work great.

My advice for MM is to call them and talk to their skilled associates. They know which arm and bushing combo is best for your application. PA... I don't have experience with but if 03 is recommending them I'd say it's a safe bet.
