Default Heidts IRS

I haven't seen much written about the Heidts Pro-G IRS; considering it for my 72 Firebird...

Anybody to share thoughts how well it works for them compared to Chassisworks or DSE 4 links?

I think all the Heidts stuff is for cursing. You never see them out at events running cars.

Look at the rear suspension on a Jaguar (any of them) from like 50 years ago; they were very cool for many a transplant in an old hotrod (and they were used in Jags for many a decade), but they did leave a bit to be desired. That's basically what the Heidt's rear end is, with slight updating and prettying up.

You could go with one of our Torque Arms like I have on my '73
