Default WRX GodSpeed Rear Lateral Links

Hey everyone i just got my rear lat links upgraded, and i thought i would share some pics. The knuckle bolt was not as bad as i thought. I got it done at top line tire here in brooksville just off of SR50

Who else has this done? Did you like it or think it was a waste? I can def tell a difference, my rear is so much stiffer. I also installed a rear strut tower brace too, i think the combo is great for rear chasis stiffening.

those are purdy, are they the ones from ebay? I've been looking at these as they are less than half the cost of the whitelines.. Let us know how they hold up over time.

Yes they are from ebay, they were shipped pretty fast too. They feel incredibily strong, like they are made from the same pipe used in pressurized systems. It would take a press to bend these. I highly recommend them. I haven't used them off road though, I will post up and let you know how they work out.

My only complaint is they arrived with a few chips in them from shipping standard USPS. If you order them from ebay, and want to keep them pretty, i would suggest a faster delivery method.

I cleaned the black crap off of my stock ones, & was very happy with the look. For what I do with the car, stock is fine & aluminum is nice & light.

if you want some spares I have them sitting here.. Two front rear lateral links and one drivers side rear lat link with a bracket welded to it. I have them for $5.00 in the FS forum if you pick them up.

I'm going to post pics in that thread

$236 with 4-wheel laser alignment..Alignment reqd b/c it sat like / \ with just an install. I was going to take it to S&R b/c they quoted my $190 depending how hard the knuckle bolt was, but I borrowed my neighbors trailer and didn't want to put tons of miles on it. Ask for billy. I watched him all the way through and he does good work.
