yea i figured out what you meant after i posted, and i figured you meant to say the quad-shock bolt hole.

never seen em on sale at MM, tho i have seen Koni's go on sale at Stranoparts.com infact, he (sam strano) just had a sale a couple months ago, the koni's were like $100 off.

i dont know if the added price and complexity is really worth it for the WL when a PHB offers essentially the same thing with less complexity and a good bit less in price.

also makes me wonder about something like a "5-link" ie steeda style. what if one were to "convert" the two upper arm frame mounts into parallel, and have two upper parallel links mounted to the axle via welded tabs, then run a MM PHB or even a watts?

MM has the Koni's on sale (20%), but I'm going to miss out as I'm not going to buy them very soon. The GF still has a year left of her masters (OT), and a lot of this fun stuff will be added when we can enjoy the benefits of dual income-no kids.

This should also give me a year of AX practice before upgrading the suspension. Also, I do like the idea of creating my own Watts Link/PHB, put my mech eng degree to use.
