Re: 4 link decision

I installed a TCI kit on my 72 Nova and I love the handling and adjustability. Their kit feels and look beefy and solid. Having said that, I have not seen any other kit in person, just online pictures.
I have also installed a TCI kit in my 53 GMC 3/4 ton. They are the only ones who advertise their kit for 3/4 ton trucks. There are some pictures in my post in build section subforum since I am still in the middle of the project. I have to say that I do have an issue with the panhard (diagonal) bar in my 53. It interfere with my 14 bolt axle swap. I guess I can't blame TCI for that since I assume they design their kit based on original axles. I didn't have any issue with my Nova. Routing exhaust can be a challenge but what is not a challenge in an old car/truck when you start swapping different parts?
Good luck
