IMO, anything "Universal" is usually not as great as something purpose built.

There are some really beautifully engineered kits and systems out there. I am simply not convinced that there are any gains in handling on a retrofit system over a good tight stock system. I know there can be some weight savings and there are less parts to wear out giving less slop, but I just don't see it as a cost effective upgrade.........but if you are doing a custom chassis........
