Wiebe suspension works great on a drag car but I think it would be too rough and noisey on a nice street car as it has no bushings.

The upper rear cross member that the rear suspension hooks to MUST be reinforced. As the car launches the rearend tries to rotate. It shoves forward on the lower control arms and pulls back on the upper control arms. If not strongly reinforced, the upper cross member will rip away from the frame.

Is this the brackets that go from the upper control arm mount to the lower? Thanks for the input.
