Wow, good point. Is it really that bad though? Even in the aftermarket world, is it that hard to find replacements? This will be my daily driver, so my biggest concern really is that I am still able to take exit and on ramps the way I can in this godforsaken stock tC with a stock Mach. Pretty sure the sweeping the turns here in FL will be okay to take at around 70+. Since you have both, have you noted a world of difference between the two besides the general ride of the cars? Thanks!

Hardest thing to get is the subframe should one get bent in an accident.

Everything is still out there if you have patience.

I love mine (well when the car ran that is), but its all bushed and braced to kingdom come.

Thanks guys!! So pretty much whichever of the three cars I find in the best condition for the best price is the way I'll go, because it sounds like there's a solution either way I go in terms of suspension. I do appreciate everyone's time!
