Has anyone had experience with a panhard suspension versus a watts linkage suspension? Better handling, ride different any other changes required?

We have installed a couple watts links and they are designed for more aggressive driving. What are you using the car for? Road race? Street? Drag race? The factory panhard style suspeniuon on the 05+ MUstangs is a very good design that can be improved with some aftermarket upgrades.

Thanks for the come back Bill. Want to do some autocross and I have always enjoyed a good handling car. Just curious about the Watts Link.
