I just saw this on the Heidts website, and sure while it's not for our trucks, they do in fact make stabilizer bars for the MII setups.

Also, I have read plenty of articles, and it seems a MAJOR selling point of ALL the MII kits, are that they offer no bumpsteer problems.

I am not trying to start a fight, just showing that the things you say are so bad about this setup, seem to be fixable depending on application.

Didn't buckinthebowtie drive fat mans bump side on a road corse to test the handling against mustangs and camaros? and it has a mustang 2 hub to hub kit on it. I don't think Grant would have choose the mustang 2 kit for his truck if he didn't like it.
