Did SPL revise the design of their rear traction arms?

k67p67 · 04-20-2017, 06:38 PM

Ordered a set of rear traction arms from ConceptZPerformance that were drop shipped from SPL. Just received the parts and they look nothing like any pictures I've seen on SPL's site or various vendor sites. Did SPL revise the design?

Response from Mike @ SPL Parts:

"Those are the new design RTR arms. Our website has them pictured as well."

Looks like their midlinks, just smaller. Same type design.

I know you're an SPL fan as am I. However, you sometimes trash talk non-SPL products without having any first-hand knowledge of the quality of the product. These Voodoo13 FUCAs are well-designed and well-constructed. The only difference I see between the SPL and Voodoo13 products are the self-cleaning joints and the $100 price differential.

Make sure to give a review on the voodoo's! I went SPL FUCA due to a good sale on them.

One advantage, From my alignment guy, the spl adjuster is much much better. It's one nut with a hex cap mechanism to lock settings in place, instead of a traditional jam nut like voodoo13 uses. He said it makes his life so much easier tha. The traditional mechanism everyone else uses
