this was installed on the mustang I just purchased... it is unbelievable! a very worthwhile suspension mod, although it makes the car less streetable
it creates an incredible combo of stiffness and grip

sure - I think it is the spherical bearings on the upper control arms - you feel everything on the street, probably not just the watts link but the roush trak pak coil overs and the whole suspension & body set up ... don't get me wrong I am not complaining... but probably another reason I am in no rush to bring to back to Hawaii roads... the spec 4 ceramic clutch adds to it too
probably the watts link on a car w/just a 'normal' stiffer suspension would be perfectly streetable

Those spherical bearings do transmit more NVH into the cabin - common shortcoming since it is all about gaining more precision and keeping that lively axle centered under the vehicle. Any maintenance schedule for the Watts link?

that's a good question, thanks - I should ask them about that - the car has about 12k miles on it - Stage 3 put in sound deadening material under the carpeting when the front and back seats were changed out to Roush trak pak seats so that helps w/the spherical bearing effect to some degree
