If someone can’t tell the difference between 1.03” bars and 1.14” bars they probably shouldn’t be doing suspension work! If his bars are from Sway Away that makes sense, more options there for sure.
Firm Feel is also a small business that has been making Mopar suspension and steering products for a long time and has a ton of experience. So is DoctorDiff, for that matter.
Again, nothing against BergmanAutoCraft, I have plenty of BAC parts on my car and they’re awesome, Peter sells great stuff and he’s the only supplier for some of my favorite parts (Delrin bushings, modified SPC UCA’s). But I also have parts from Firm Feel, and DoctorDiff, and others.
Setting up a car depends a lot on application and driver’s preference, and getting it dialed in can mean sourcing parts from multiple places. The more options out there the better!
The Green Brick was a great start for when it was, but tire compounds, shock technology, brakes etc have all made huge advances since then. The Green Brick would not be nearly as successful with that set up at todays street car challenges and AutoX’s.
And honestly, some of the stock parts used on the brick are not cheap to find in good condition anymore. The aluminum 3rd member sure as heck isn’t! Mopar Performance torsion bars aren’t cheap either. Innovative at the time, but it’s half measures compared to what’s available now.
Uh, Firm Feel offers suspension and steering parts in one place. You have a few more options, but, they still offer both.
When I built my Challenger, Firm Feel was really the only place to go for serious handling parts. Reinforced K frames, torsion bars, sway bars, rebuilt steering boxes with fast ratio chucks, poly and nylon bushings, tubular tie rod adjusters, pitman and idler arms, roller bearing idlers, sector support braces, adjustable strut rods (before QA1 made them!) custom leaf springs, Bilstein shocks, etc. And you can absolutely call them up and have a meaningful conversation about setting up your car for your own application, I have.
I’m not trying to knock you or your business, as you know I run a ton of your parts and I love all of them. The roller bearing idler I installed a little while back is awesome, and made a huge difference in steering effort. But, yeah, I have awesome parts from Firm Feel too. It’s great that there’s multiple places to go now where someone looking to set up a great handling Mopar can go or call and get experienced advice and great parts. The more options out there the better!
