2006 Escalade, 120k miles. I saw in other threads where people complained about the ride/steering quality after switching to DJM lower control arms with 3" lowering. One guy said he was going to switch to DJM uppers to see if it made a difference, but I didn't see any updates. So what's the verdict, do any of you run DJM LCAs and are happy with them? And if so, did you manage to make the factory magnetic shocks (mostly Escalades, Denalis I think) work with the DJM LCAs? Or did you abandon them (and if so, why)?

TIA!

ive been using them for 19 years now. i mate them with the belltech street performance shocks and use them on my custom 3/5-6 kits and customers like them

my custom complete kit and my rear springs by far best riding out there

I run the uca and lca and theyre ok I guess, the poly bushings make you feel every bump in the road, by street shocks are ok I guess, bump steer after install is HORRIBLE..I regret using them, should've used spindles!

I have lowered Yukons and Tahoes using lowering keys, DJM LCA, and spindles with adjusting the stock keys for desired drop. I have spindles on mine now and I'd like to remove the torsion bars with Atomic's coilover.
