I have a Speed direct spreader bar. But I'm afraid, nothing else.
But I will take this opportunity to say this about that.
The brackets that mount on the upper A arm studs for the spreader bar are made of steel way to thin and or of insufficient strength. Also clearance for Air-Con belt just wasn't considered.
After MUCH reinforcement and clearancing for the air-con compressor belt. It's a great thing indeed, and I often recommend it.
But for gods sake, beef up those brackets. Mine bent before I even put the car down off the jackstands!
Still a work in progress but I'll say this, the steeroids was very easy to install. I look forward to the day I drive down the road.
And the Sharkbite system is sweet too !
First piece I installed, I believe the comment on my build thread was "Steeroids rack, an easy user friendly install" .
The aforementioned tower brace bracket, I guess I'll find out if it needs an upgrade when I finally put some miles on.
And the brace.
.... and out with the old ....
.... AND IN WITH THE COOLNESS ...
OOoooooooh AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH .......
Sorry for the Photo essay, but a picture is worth a 1000 words! Easy to install components, yes a bit of tweaking but I enjoyed the install, as I did with all the installed Steeroids components.

I ordered one of the spreader bars and they sent me the wrong version even though the invoice showed the right one that I ordered. I had to send it back and they made me pay restocking fee (who the heck still charges for that??) for their mistake.

Hm. I ordered one of their clutch linkage kits through CC or Zip and they sent the wrong one. I just emailed speed direct directly and they immediately sent the correct kit without charging me or even waiting to receive the first kit back. Maybe just lucky with the rep who got back to me
