    Even so you'd need a lot of work to make it work. 90-02 is still completely different from 89 and down.

      98-02 should bolt on. Wouldn't even have to mod the 2 front mounts but I don't think that swap would be worth the trouble. The best part about doing 03+ swap is to improve handling.

        I'm the resident anti-OHC and anti-rack steering guy. I've owned two vehicles with racks, still own one, and absolutely loathe the way they drive. I drove a rack panther once. Got it 1/2 mile down the road and turned around. No thank you. They're just too disconnected and numb feeling for me to put up with. The 4 link rear suspension is pretty much shite though, no argument there. A panhard bar is high on my list of wants. I'm very tired of the back end of the car dancing and floating when I hit crappy pavement. IRS would be even cooler

          Remember when someone was supposed to make that a thing and abandoned the project?

            yeah, probably too much of a pain in the ass to be practical. One can dream though.
