Right now I'm putting ladder bars on my car and it's a 4-speed. Sure a 4-link may allow more control but a full back-half & 4-link is just not in my budget right now. And I like the simplicity of a ladder bar also as it is less "track sensitive".

Jeff,
Thanks for the reply.
In order to have the best chance to have this "revival" come together, budget is certainly one of the things to be considered here, but another would be simplicity. This car worked extremely well when I (along with car owner Bill Meerholz) drove it. I was always a big believer in good static weight distribution (important for "track sensitivity" too) with my Duster as well, and because of that, my belief is that the ladder bar, at least in this particular car, would be fine as is. Also, I was assuming that virtually everyone uses a brake, but perhaps that is not the case?
