Fabrication? **** my alter-k bolted right in. I drilled Drilled four 3/8" holes,drove out the pin in the steering column and took a hair of metal off the upper control arm mount. . Hardly call that considerable fabrication.
Exactly. I agree. My Gerst Kit didn’t even need that. I had my gerst installed in less than an hour and a half, including the removal of the old k frame and t bars( though I did simply cut most of that out)
I also dispute the limited shock travel. That varies depending on the kit and what not.
As I’ve said before, if one is going to change out to a coil over front kit, to maximize the coil over system, one needs to do it at all four corners. Then make sure the spring rate is appropriate for the car and run it.
I have had mopars with both setups. This debate is kind of like the 1911 vs Glock debate, it’s never going to end and each has its pros and cons. Ultimately, in the end, go with your guy and ignore any naysayers. Just enjoy what you do have.
