With minitubs, watts link and tailpipes things are going to get a little crowded on a fox Mustang. Any ideas?

Jeremy,
We offer a Watts/3-Link setup for the Fox cars....In fact our Watts link won a SEMA award for its innovation back in 2002. Take a look, and let us know if you have any questions.

Some general notes regarding the TA vs 3-Link:
THREE LINK BENEFITS OVER A TORQUE ARM
• Less Un-Sprung Weight
• Improved Ground Clearance. Generally Torque Arms have reduced ground clearance below the Differential.
• Dynamic Instant Center (IC) and Side-View-Swing-Arm(SVSA) Geometry is created by the Upper and Lower Control Arms unlike a fixed SVSA Geomerty of a Torque Arm. The Trilink geometry allows the vehicle to have increased Anti-Squat during acceleration for maximum bite while accelerating and increased Anti-Dive while braking.
If you have some time you can check out a thread on Corner-Carvers which pretty much hashes out our TriLink:
