Alright guys...just wondering if the BLOX range of products are any good? I like the look of the stuff so im interested in buying the LCA's and the ASR brace.

blox stuff isnt great imo. I had blox droplinks which lasted about 3 weeks before they were done.

Personally I would steer clear of them, I've heard alot of complaints about the bushings. You get what you pay for and if it were me I would try Function7, Skunk2 or even Tegiwa Billet ones as they use Energy suspension bushes which can be replaced easily if needed be which is the same story for the F7's and sk2 sell bushes separately as far as i know.

Remember if your changing LCA's, Don't tighten up the bolts when the car is off the ground. Fully tighten when the car is firmly on the ground as this keeps the stress off the bushings.

Was thinking of poly bushing the full lot even if they didnt last very long

I are Blox LCA on my EK4 with no problems. But as mention make sure you tighten them on the ground

I dont get this "tighten the bolts on the ground" which everyone states.

is it just me?

way i see it is the only forces when tightening the bolts is one on the metal bush in centre of the lca bushings

when you locate bolt through the bush and do few turns thats where the lca is going to sit or very close to it no matter if its in the air or on the ground i thought.
