I have BBK lower control arms... I have not had any problems with them and they give my the bite I need. They are high quality and a good price. I regret not buying the uppers with the lowers... so I'd suggest getting those too.

For street drag-racing type, I would go with the HPMotorsport Megabite SENIORS.
For street handling, go with the MM ones.

If you add a panhard and expect opentrack use, then go with the Griggs.
(had choice #1 and #3 on my own car).

Any reason you don't like the Megabite Juniors?
