Which do you prefer and why? Dodge versus Chevrolet. Jeep versus Toyota. The straight axle is bulletproof but the independent is the choice in late models. What are you running and what is you're likes and dislikes? Please feel free to post pictures of your setup

pretty simple to me, if you want sports car like handleing and ride quality, the IFS is for you.

for flexibility, 4 wheeling prowess and strength go with the best, LOL.
