Front suspension styles
So im sorta wondering whats the better style of these 2 suspension styles.
The style on my mustang has the 1 control arm, and a macpherson strut. The control arm connects At 2 points to the k-member.
Then you have something like what a Nissan 240 has, with 1 control, 1 tension rod and a strut. The control arm is connect at only 1 point to the k member, then then tension rod is the 2nd pt .
Which is the better style?

just an added point of adjustability from what I can tell.
McPherson Struts are simple. work well (When tuned correctly) are are cheap to build. just keep in mind they do not forgive over lowering a car, nor do they forgive poor tuning.
