BMR and a couple of others now offer an adjustable lower.
If I ever go coilover in the rear ill look at changing the set up perhaps.
Yes because having such stiff arms all with poly bushings will cause binding and could tear and a control arm mount. Better to be safe than sorry and try to get some 99+ GT uppers. They have a stiffer rubber bushing than the 98 and older. But if budget is an issue, some 98 and older will work just fine for now.
It's only a bad combo because they utilize stiff urethane in all of the bushings.
The triangulated 4-link rear suspension inherently has bind in it. Ford alleviated this bind by allowing some flexibility in the soft rubber bushings.

Torque arm and panhard = game changer.
ok. I've been reserching more. all makes sense. all tho the guys at dasilva have been/are great. they make a solid argument as to why the upper/lower upr is the way to go. . it's a nice car, I don't to screw up a mount. better to reinforce while here too?
