How does the rear bar hang? is it above or below the rear end? |

I have an Addco front bar. It's a real handling improvement, but I do not like the way the brackets mount to the K-member. They hang down enough that with stock torsion bars, hitting a hard bump can bottom out the brackets. Not good. |

From emsvitil pics. I didn't like the way the brackets lined up under the K frame. two squares at different angles you could always trim off the excess. The firm feel brackets I thought looked like a cleaner install with better ground clearance. |

I haven't had a problem with hitting the brackets. With a little grinding I could even get them fully out of the way. I may have managed to mount them higher on the K-member than you did.......... |

I will agree that firm feel has a better mounting system in front (and probably rear)......... But for the cost of 1 bar at firm feel you can get the pair of addco bars............. |
