    I'd like to give a review of Head Strong off-road, first off yes they are a smaller company, right now they are only web based so far but will soon be opening a company store.

    secondly I bought a complete OME kit with dakars from them along with a set of LR UCAs. they have great customer service. For example, they immediately told me that their shipment of LR UCAs wont arrive to them until tuesday afternoon and they will ship my UCAs out first thing wednesday morning! That right there shows a token of gratitude that I have for them! Also since I did my research and chose them over any other company like DSM (not that DSM isnt a bad company) mainly because they saved me almost $300, they out of their gratitude of appreciation that I gave them a shot, they are send me new bushings for the dakars and SS extended brake lines FOR FREE!!

    granted there are companies like toytec , DSM, and Wheelers, but those companies either didnt offer things like a carrier bearing drop included in the package, or shipping would of been way to much. like I said I saved 300 bucks! I spent all morning yesterday before ordering from Headstrong getting price checks and comparing each kit and the complete OME kit from Head Strong was the best bang for my buck!!

    I definitely recommend them to anyone and would/ probably will do more business with them in the future!

    Headstrong is awesome, best deal around on LR UCAs. The price for the OME kit is about the same as DSM shipped i think. I got the kit from downsouth an UCAs from headstrong for $1504 shipped. DSM includes the CB drop, they just dont include new bushings for the shackle side of the dakars

    ah yes I agree they are awesome. I guess I wasnt specific in my post although I knew DSM did include the CB drop, I meant companies like toytec dont include the CB drop with their kit and it would have cost a bit more adding to the 1700 price was given.

    I am no way bashing DSM, Toytec, or wheelers. they are wonderful companies and would have had no problem purchasing my kit from any of them had I not heard of or if headstrong didn't exist!

    Thats awesome that they included the brake lines and bushings for free. I wish they offered OME when i ordered my kit. I wasn't saying you were bashing the other companies, anyone who has done their research knows they all have their advantages/disadvantages besides price for example toytec and wheelers will pre assemble your shocks and springs. Looks like headstrong is going to be a major competitor with these other companies if they keep expanding what products they offer.

    yeah they included the brake lines and bushings free as a token of their gratitude being that they saw my posts about them yesterday and how well i talked about them. i wouldnt be surprised if they are scouting this thread now :p they are an awesome company!

    Ya Headstrong is awesome. I spoke to one of them on the phone a while ago about figuring out a good way to ship to Canada free fees and crap. They got me my LCAs really cheap and Im definitely going to be going through them next time because other places like ToyTec for example had me paying about the same for shipping as the Eibachs and AAL I bought directly from them.

    yep Headstrongoffroad.com is the site! they just told me they are actually bigger than i thought. meaning they dont limit themselves to just what they offer on their site. they have some good connections anywhere from optima batteries to best top bed covers! and also have good connections with other top off-road accessory companies!

    I feel this needs a bump, great company to talk to. They actually take the time and write full paragraphs in their emails. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for anything offroading.

    Yes they offer more than what is on their website. Highly reccomend!!
