Re: 55.2 Rear Suspension Choices

I did the Art Morrison fat bar parallel 4 link. The idea being I could replace the coil overs with ShockWave's IF I ever wanted to bag. Never have and those things are REALLY expensive, anyway. I, personally don't like the track locator bar on the kit you showed for the street. Morrison kit came with a panhard bar which, IMO, is better. The real advantage I see to the coil overs is ride ht. adjustability. If it doesn't look right to you when done, it's easy to fix. I'll also say a parallel 4 link isn't the greatest for serious traction, IMO. You don't have the ability to adjust instant center to load the tires. I can eat the Hoosiers on my truck through 2 gears on the street. I am going to try a "fun" run at the Tri 5 nats next week in Bowling Green and see if a prepped surface makes any difference.
