    Default steeda 5 link

    does anyone here ever installed steeda,s 5 link. if so how well did it work for you? It looked to me like it would put alot af stress on the upper torque boxes.

    Grassroot Motorsports Magazine did a build up of a 1990 GT with the Steeda 5 link...

    Might check their website...

    I wouldn't worry about it.

    Stress on the upper torque boxes is actually significantly reduced, because they only have to handle the front to back load. All the side loading has been removed from the upper torque boxes and is handled by the panhard bar.
