Anyone have one? Is it as needlessly complicated as it looks like?

if your referring to the steeda set up then it is Steeda version to use instead of a Wattslink or TA+PBH

Steeda's set up is has alot of moving parts and uses Poly bushings which will wear out and need to be replaced. A Panhard Bar and Torque are dont have any poly bushings

Yeah I was thinking of Steeda's set-up. In theory it seems awesome, but I always thought in practice it looked like it was just too many damn part's.

watts link is also a great set up. Better that a PBH/TA is alot of ways. When buying suspension try and stick with one company, this makes all the parts fit properly and work together. For this reason i choose Maximum Motorsports because when all there parts are teamed up is like an orgasm :santa_afro:

i have always thought that since the steeda 5 link has so many moving parts and Bushings that either a part or bushing would break or wear out overtime and need the bushings replaced....i would be pissed trying to get bushings for the 5 link

what kind is it called when you have a panhard, torque arm and lower control arms? but no uppers...

I think Dalamar has the same set up...

Is it a really good set up? or not? I really like the idea of cutting the upper arms out since the upper is the current big problem on the rear in my opinion

It is a really good set-up, just not as full out as the watt's and five links, but for the street, more than enough, and strong too.
