But doing a mini tub leaf spring car today is a pure welcome to 1999 set up. The net cost of components difference between a mini tub G link or Quadra Link kit and a mini tub leaf spring kit is about $1500. Easily recovered in added value of the finished car.






Frank--is this at the lowest setting? It looks like it from the shocks being spun down all way---perhaps that was just the install---Just wondering if you could go lower with it.

We just finished it and sent it home to California.

As for ride height, we set it up that way, customer did not want it to low. it would go lower thoough

Looks looks a solid setup.. I like the all in one bracket. Looks stout and frees up some room for exhaust.

I was looking at it for height too. The pics of the bracket? Are they with the suspension at full droop? Was wondering cause the sway bar arm is pointed way up from the looks of it. Any more compression on the suspension looks like it will push the sway bar's arm link pretty far forward. Id prolly like to see a longer link and have the arm a lil more level with the ground. Might just be the pics giving the look that the arm is pointing up alot.

But I like the ride height of the car on the side shot, looks good.

Everything looks good. Cept Id like to see a longer sway bar end link. Looks kinda short with the arm pointed up. JR

Default Pulling The Trigger???

I think at the bottom of the first page he said something like pulling the trigger. Either he offed himself or i guess went with the lateral dynamics.
