I read this article and my initial response was....Oh No!
I have installed an AlterKtion in my 70 GTX build.

While I certainly can NOT comment on any durability or handling issues Rick mentioned in the article, I can agree with him on ONE point and that is where the thru-bolts go at the shock tower on the AlterKtion to the frame rails. It is VERY easy to "crush" the frame rail by over tightening.

I respected his opinion but wondered also about the mention of failures with out proof.I also respected the fact that he pretty much backed up his "opinion" with his justification for each opinion.

I am looking forward to driving this car and intend to drive the snot out of it as often as I can. I am not a racer, just wanted the look of the classic beauty with as close to modern convenience as I could (fairly ) reasonably accomplish.

Bottom line is this...If the AlterKtion was that bad, RMS would not still be selling them and our Beloved Moparters would have COMPLETELY discredited Bill Reiley a long time ago!
