I have the J&M aluminum one. Very sturdy piece and lighter than the stock part of course. At first I couldn't figure out how to get it properly adjusted but, Frank and I on here got it. To adjust it the easiest way put the car on a lift and load the rear axle so it will be as if the car is planted on the ground. Make adjustments as necessary on both ends. Use some locktite.

Thanks for the info. It likely won't be on a lift though, probably just jack stands.

Hmm I've always heard the opposite about J&M and to stay away from it. I wanna say I've seen a YouTube video of some guy under his mustang pulling down on the J&M PHB and it was bowing seriously downward with simple pressure of him pulling on it.

Like the saying. You get what you pay for.

OP, Go BMR and never look back!
