I don't believe there will be any way to make that work. I don't want to say never, but I wouldn't bet on it.

It is a triangulated 4-Link that utilizes a cradle in the body of the car and the spot formerly occupied by the front of the leaf spring. Other than that it is nothing like the "old" g-Bar.
We have this setup finished for the Mustangs, it has a lot of the same features as the F-Body system will. You can look this over and get a better idea of what you are going to be getting.

Hello Tim,

Thank you your reply.One reason i wanted to stay away from QL was the adjustability. Since i really dont know much about adjusting chassis do i really need these other features except ride height ? I am just about to bay one from Frank and if i have understood this right the "old" G-bar has adjustability in ride heigth too by repositioning coil over ? Is the bushing material same in poly version ?

Yes, the bushing material is will be the same. You can adjust the height a little bit with the spring, just not nearly as much as you will be able to with the new system. Frank is 100% qualified to help you with that adjustment.
