NE1 else see the new BMR Watts Link, Body Mount
I was thinking of fabricating a watts link but maybe I'll just buy this instead.
Looks like a nice setup that might compel me to make reservations to spend
a couple of nights in the dog house.

They undercut Fays 2 on the price as well. I wonder how much it weighs?

No weight listed on their dealers info yet, waiting on a response from BMR.
*Edit* BMR says shipping weight is about 45 lbs.Last edited by 96LT1355Z28; 03-10-2015 at 08:47 AM.

I had just picked up a Fays2. Haven't had a chance to weigh everything myself but I remember Sam posting a tidbit about it in one of the tech threads. For comparison...
Weight it's just over 26 pounds. You replace about 7-8 pounds of parts to install. Net difference is about 17 pounds in total, and most of that is sprung weight, not the less desirable unsprung weight.
Here's some info from a customer who (obviously) wanted to know compared to what he removed:
added weight:
Watts frame: 11 3/4 lb
link assemblies, total for pair: 3 5/8 lb
axle clamp assemblies, including rod end and mounting bolts, total for pair: 10 3/4
bellcrank assembly, including rod end and mounting bolts: 2 1/2 lb
