Cool Suspension ****- Watts Link arrived!

My first watts link -- cannot wait to get this on my SS... (cat not included )



Those unfamiliar, it's a Fays2, and it replaces the panhard and the other horizontal bar in the rear and maintains the roll center -- next best thing to an IRS.

No joke craby. I don't think there's a suspension thread where liberty hasn't mentioned one of these.

^ LOL, as soon as I get time to install -- this weekend sucked up time with brake fluid flushes on both Camaros -- long overdue. Unexpected had to replace the driver rear caliper on the RS with a reman, since salt and corrosion fused the bleeder screw and stripped the threads trying to install speed bleeders...

Please install. Maybe do laptime before and after, or some kind of tests. I'm interested in this.
