Looking into buying as set, have always heard they greatly improve handling. Was wondering if you guys could recommend some brands to go with or stay away from? Thanks..

+1 on the Full length from M/M. I can just about get 3 wheels off the ground when jacking it up from 1 spot. So yeah, it kind of stiffens it up. Well work the money. While your down there throw on a 4 point K member brace. Between the 2 you will feel a big difference in handling and a better center of gravity.

Well sounds like MM is the way to go, any idea what all three components will cost? The car is a 94 GT if it makes a difference.

Build this kit piece by piece. I just installed it and oh damn! They are really cool to deal with & great Tech support over the phone. Talk to Jason he knows his stuff. And if you let them know you want to build the kit but cant do it all at once, they will work with you and discount as you go.
