With that kind of balljoint there is almost no friction.. so better suspension (jo have to use struts at the back)

more reading

have been reading up today and they look trick as but , i think you need the top of the shocker mounts strenthening with a brace as im going down the mid mounted turbo route i think there may be some interferance issues so maybee next year when i get the roll cage in i could tye the mounts to the roll cage , ideas anybody or will the coilovers work ok without the brace in,
cheers for the input racelook

I wouldn't recommend using the mono-ball & coil-over setup without some kind of bracing, as the entire weight of the car would be trying to twist and bend the standard shock mounts.

some kind of brace between the two shock mounts to keep them the same distance apart and preferably something connecting them to the frame horns should be used.

I'm using the MBT setup and they recommend a 5 bar brace when going this route.
