    Just a thought

    something like this would fit to a mcstrut package 'easier' and a double axis strut system(similar to revo knuckles) would not need any 'body modifications'.

    double axis strut system/ revo knuckles in action

    I´m fairly certain almost all of the WRC cars have switched to a revo-knuckle style suspension by now, ford and citroën have been using the system for quite some time. (Two of the best in the recent years )

    or this type of a double-'A' arm suspension

    i will be using chromoly 4130 or 4140, i will give tensile strength and bernell hardness with what ever i use. So you can see for yourself the strength. lol. It will be stronger than stock.

    I think the revo system is nice but would require alot of cnc work and i cant get that kind of work done very cheap. I Like the way it would adapt easy. But i believe it would also limit the struts to choose from.

    the double-'A' arm setup is every bit as good as revo knuckle style setup even better IMO

    Close, more like this tho. It's much easier to see with a halfshaft in there.
