It seems to me that everyone considers coil over front suspension an upgrade to the torsion bar setup. ...why?
Is it really superior?
I thought torsion bar suspension was supposed to be one of the big benifits over Ford and Chevy?
"Everyone considers" ???
You mean everyone that sells a coil over suspension considers them an upgrade?
I'll bet that every person selling a product that they develop would say the same thing.
They are not an upgrade, they are a change. Change can be good but is not always that way.
If you drive a Chevy and change to a Ford, you are still an idiot.
