Just got some drag springs and adjustable struts in the front. I still have stock shocks and upper control arms in the rear. I want to know if the relocated Baseline uppers are worth $100 more than the CHE double adjustable uppers.

I think I'm going with Motorcraft shocks since they are 50/50. I might upgrade the quad shocks instead of ditching them.

If I was going that route I would look at Team Z stuff. Seems people have the best results with them. I have never used them so I can't give a personal experience.

For 20 years, the fastest cars haven't used relocated uppers and that hasn't changed recently. Given the choice between the baseline uppers and the CHEs, I'd buy the CHEs and use the 100 saved to buy Strange 10-ways instead of stock shocks.
