No problem, glad to help.

You may really want to consider the Alston G-Bar setup though. For what you'll have in a leaf spring setup with a watts linkage you can do the g-bar and have more adjustability.

I was in the same boat as you a few months agao till I saw the g-bar and talked to Frank at Prodigy. I sold my DSE stuff and didn't look back.

I haven't driven the car yet, but it's installed and all I can say is wow! It's a thing of beauty and quality.

Anyway, food for thought.

Most I know run rubber up front and the GW bushings out back.
Just saw this thread was wondering if it is OK to use the del a lum bushings up front as well?

I don't have any of mine in the car, but here is a link to a thread by Frank at Prodigy. https://lateral-g.net/forums/showthread.php4?t=10665

This thread, https://lateral-g.net/forums/showthread.php4?t=10488

And this thread https://lateral-g.net/forums/showthread.php4?t=9784

Should cover all the bases. As you can see it's been discussed quite a bit on here.

This is a pick if the Air-Bar, same thing but the G-Bar has coilovers.

It's a VERY nice setup and almost entirely a bolt-in kit.

Give Frank at Prodigy a call he he'll talk you into it in 2 minutes. He can also make you a nice deal on the kit through his GP Superstore.

Truthfully, after seeing it installed I would never go back to leafs again.
