Well finally, we have picked the design we are going to manufacture and offer to the masses.
We have spent quite some time designing and testing various designs - to ensure we cover all the bases, and can claim that our component is the best available.
Proto1 features a solid Chrome Moly Adjuster, with a Chrome Moly Teflon Lined bearing, and a Billet Aluminum inner body. The inner mount features a Delrin bushing, and the outer mount features billet aluminum inserts that mount to the knuckle. All parts are extreme quality.
Adjustment with this piece is performed and secured by turning the center adjuster and tightening the jam nuts.

Proto2 features a solid proprietary steel material that is .555" thick, with a Chrome Moly Teflon Lined bearing, and Billet Aluminum inner spacers. The inner mount features a Delrin bushing.
Adjustment with this design is performed by loosening the (5) strategically placed set screws, set wheel where it needs to be, then tighten the set screws. The adjustment is secured by the surface friction area and clamping force of the 5 set screws.

Proto3 - is just badassery. This design features a solid 7075 Billet Aluminum Design with a Chrome Moly Teflon Lined bearing, and Billet Aluminum inner spacers. The inner mount features a Delrin bushing.
Adjustment with this design is performed by loosening the (4) strategically placed set screws, set wheel where it needs to be, then tighten the set screws. The adjustment is secured by the serrations/teeth that you see in the video.

When weighing out the pros and cons, we have chosen Proto1.
The Proto1 design is the most cost effective for us, provides slightly easier adjustment method, and just looks amazing!
I would have loved to offer Proto3, but the consumer would just not pay what we would need for it.
All 3 designs are more rigid than a tubular design. These designs are practically deflection free (hence the reason for all the billet, and the reason for such thick steel plate and proprietary material)
All 3 designs also provide more Half Shaft Clearance than any other options available. I assume this may be very important in the long run.
For those that are wondering why we are not showing the bushings on 2 and 3, it is because we like to make others work at offering good parts (instead of see our vid and a light bulb go off). Our bushing mount style on those are completely specific to us at BMR.Thanks for looking! I hope to start taking orders and shipping before the end of Q1 2016!
