Right now I'm running GW Cat 5 springs but I'm thinking of going with either DSE's Quadra-Link or Alstons G Bar or just leave it as is?
Thanks for the help!

Gosh I hope after all the comments you still do not think LD is best. Most seem to support DSE as I do. Even the poll shows DSE.

I bet the LatD 3link would be almost as popular as the DSE if it didn't impede on the rear seats so much more with that pocket for the upper link. DSE 4link is a very nice product, but I think both are hovering around the same quality level, with the geo of the 3link being maybe a bit more ideal, albeit much more intrusive to the stock sheetmetal. That being said I haven't installed either, this is just from observing the internetz.

Also... you can't deny that there is a legion of loyal internet-spurred DSE fanboys (not that their product doesn't at all deserve it)... so it's pretty hard to NOT buy DSE when everyone so quickly and shortly responds "DSE, not question" and that's it.

Just an observation but the fact that DSE continuously takes their products to the track to prove their competence makes it hard to argue against them. Just look at the Mustang stuff they are releasing it after already winning events with it. On paper or the internet many things can look as good or better but real world is the real test.

Well said.

Not to mention the fact that DSE has been setting the standard for aftermarket parts in our segment. It isn't just that their products perform well, but that they are built to exacting standards, and yet also provide enough adjustment to fit 40 year old cars, which are never the same. Trust me, this is something not all aftermarket companies have grasped yet.

For me, it wasn't easy to buy DSE the first time around, because it is quite expensive. However, their stuff fits so well, you don't have to waste time later figuring things out yourself, or paying a shop to do it. While you don't save money on the purchase, you save time during the build, and time often equals money :lol:
