Default Skunk2 or Blox Racing?

looking into front camber kits, i kno Skunk2 is a pretty popular name for camber kits. have also heard Blox kits are good(im very happy with my Blox LCA's). they cost roughly the same, ~$160 give or take. either one i go with, i know for sure ill be upgrading the hardware to grade 10 or higher with locking washers since i hear they can loosen up and such. what do u guys think, Skunk2 or Blox?

I mean blox may be good, but you know what youre getting with skunk2, and if you have a problem with them, you know skunk2 will give you new ones. Whats the price difference? Think about how much it ends up being per wheel. Ive heard ppl complain about suspension prices, but even if you spend 1,000 on a suspension, thats only 250 per wheel, and I know people who spend 250 on each tire........so all in all you get what you pay for.

price isnt to big of a deal, their roughly the same price, Skunk2 being slightly more expensive it seems but only by like $20. as far as suspension and costs go, im not too concerned. im upgrading and im trying to get it atleast closer to right this time. higher/custom set rates, interchangable springs with different/custom setrates, adjustable rebound shocks, adjustable camber, adjustable toe...all things im looking for to be able to tune to my preference. as of now im looking at about $1k for the new setup. possibly more with addition of other goodies, havnt decided yetbut still have time..

Id go with the skunk2 also, same reason as Pete, I just feel they are "more" brand name. I have blox LCA's and love them, but they are just a solid piece of metal, you cant really go wrong there.

Have you guys seen the quality of the Skunk2 products vs. some of the other companies out there... the Skunk 2 stuff is 2nd to none when you compare the quality of the bushings and the Skunk 2 LCA's have mounts for the rear sways.
