That's a killer price $999.99 for a watts link and rear sway bar, same price as as normal watts link without a sway bar, and it's from the guys who built a car using that watts link which beat the Saleen S7 Supercar around a test track day in and day out infront of magazines and therefore made a suspention and supercharger that beats all thus far conceived American road legal cars on the road (enzo veyronne etc).

Sweet.

See what they do is they get you hooked and then jack up their price. Mark my words!

I've actually been talking to techco over two months over at least three conference calls with mustang tuners and resellers trying to convince them manufacture all their suspention technology. It looks like they're starting to.

I've read on a forum that I can't link to here that its built for the differant roll center that a lowered car has is this accurate and if so can it be adjusted for a stock hight car?

I just asked the Engineer who designed the kit. It was tested on our car with a stock setup and works well, you will be pleased.

It is a killer deal, the new diff cover has fill and drain plugs for the diff fluid which is nice for when you want to change fluid. Also the links are Billet Al.

I know money is tight but why not get the car lowered? ....it will add to the handling characteristics if lowered and further compliment the design of this particular set up that you like. My best guess would be to call the company and see if they make a setup for stock height cars.
