Pro Mod Front Suspension

Saw this and wondered to myself, is there any benefit to this in a PM door car versus the more normal mono strut with lower control arm setup?

Curious what others think........

Thanks.

 

Hmmm. 136 views and nobody has thoughts good or bad or otherwise?

The one advantage that I do see is that it would allow a person freedom to run whatever shock approach that they want up front, if it was not already possible to achieve the same results/control by modifying the available "strut" body valving.

 

Don't know but it looks like a very expensive conventional A arm assembly. Very pretty though.

 

I'm thinking that the main benefit would be you can change the ride height without jacking on the spring like in a strut deal. Also opens up the shock and valving possibilities. It could be smoother ride on a bumpy track, but who knows how the weight difference works out?
