    I love my Broadway mirror... it's actually extremely weird driving a car without one after having mine for SO many years.

    The biggest thing to remember is that the nick-name for the 79-04 rear suspension is "quadra-bind" because the rear suspension actually binds up (and adds spring rate) as it goes through it's motions. That is bad. That's why when people do a 3-link (torque arm) set-up, they have to change to stiffer rear springs. A torque arm can, and will, help at the drag strip too, by planting the rear end better. Note: the S197 Mustangs are 3-link with a panhard rod.

    Don't fall into the trap of stiffer bushings in the current geometry rear end either, it will only make the binding worse.

    Hope this helps!
