    Probably get an entire 9" built to my specs from Mark Williams.
    If you insist on the spool, get the 4 link.

    Linda reminded me someone said my burnouts were peg legged years ago...but once again, only in the left lane.
    Gonna be a spool or I quit.

    Strange is another option.

    Adjustables on all 4 corners. You may also want to experiment with an anti sway bar at the rear.

    Current build.

    Front:
    Moroso trick springs with QA1 DA shocks.

    Rear:
    Shocks relocated behind the axle.
    Viking DA shocks.
    Monoleafs
    Spring Sliders
    Caltracs

    Nothing above will fix the fact I have to make a sharp right hand turn into the water box in the left lane, "sometimes" unlocking the drivers side wheel.
    I have zero issues in the right lane where I can drive straight into it.
    Notice I said sometimes.....It doesn't do it every time, but enough that I'm done with it.

    .
    Meant with the 4 link corners and then adding a sway bar to that configuration to additionally strengthen up the rear after you've gone to 4 link.

    Other than a driving technique to engage the spider, you are correct. You'll have the added fun of dialing in your 4 link.

    I know yours is a track vehicle but I've known a couple guys running spools on the street. Turn stresses are much greater. Not something I'd care to do but peoples boats are different.

    It'll never see the street, it barely sees my driveway.

    I have a Local Mopar fab guy chasing down parts, he has 9 second Dart and a 10 second Barracuda running 8-3/4 rear ends, he knows his shit.
    He's also 2nd in points, 20 behind me.....Uh oh.
