Can you elaborate more on the necessity of the new steering link? I know you've stated the tie-rod angle is too extreme at positive caster, forcing a heim on the underside. What are the other proposed benefits?

Also, why pancake the crossmember, as opposed to using a simple lowering spring?

Thanks -Chris
