So how to you guys feels about the leafsprings vs 3/4-link for handling? I was in a friends 71 Monte Carlo (stock sus) and that thing outhandled my 74 roadrunner (stock sus) something fierce!





Go drive any of the newer pre 2005 mustangs (except IRS cobras)

They all have triangulated 4 link rears.

They have their weaknesses like bushing bind in hard corners, bushing bind though out the up and down motion because the triangle end wants to kind of tighten up.

In a triangulated system your asking the arms to do two separate jobs.

Control side to side motion AND up and down motion.

Ideally you would want something like a pan hard bar to control side to side motion so the control arms only have to worry about up and down motion.
