Here we go, the new hot setup:

It has a watts link, a panhard bar, a torque arm and a 3rd link all at the same time.
I call it a "Wattsbar torque link".
Sure to be all the rage....coming to a track near you.

Took a photo to learn how to post photos. Hope it works.

Edit: click on modify to see how this should look. Just click on the Share The Photo IMG link on photobucket and paste it into your post. Don't do anything else.

Torque arm installed.....CHECK!
Watts link installed:CHECK!

Just a spring change, hook up the sway bar, fillerup w/gear oil and she's ready for a test drive.

P.S.:
I was just kidding about the "Wattsbar torque link".
I changed one thing at a time to keep things located as I was swapping parts out, so at one point it had a little bit of everything on there. :eek:

MGW R spec Shifter should be coming in today...that will be the project for today depending on when it gets here.

I found this modification a worthwhile investment. It is a shame you can't see the shifter once it's installed, it's such a well executed piece.

Sorry to hear about your situation. Hope it all works out. On a medical note. Do research on baking soda and lemon juice to help prevent and treat cancer. I referred my friend to it and she felt it working. Best of luck and hope to hear you're in your Boss soon
