Default DSE or HEIDTS Rear Suspension

I am looking to install a new coil over rear supsension in my 69 Camaro and I was wondering which one I should install since I have installed the DSE deep tubs already. I am looking for good handling and the best ability to plant some sticky tires to the ground. The difficulty of installation is not a problem for me. They both look very easy to install. Please some feedback on the pros and cons of these two systems. Or do you have a better idea.

I have seen the DSE suspension on the road thanks to VEGAS69 the car flat out handled to road with no problem. I have not see hedits but I'm sure it a well made piece. it really is what you want to put in it. just my .02

Vegas 69 has a G bar which is a much better choice then Heidts. Heidts is in a different catagory. Your choice is really between a DSE Quadra Link and a G bar (many variations)

Your welcome to call and discuss

Yes Frank is, but you should call him as there are a few versions available now and he is the guy to help you make the right choice!

Have you considered a 3-link or torque arm? There are many suspension options available...life is good in the PT world now days!!
