Message links you have. The stock Z has very little in the way of alignment adjustment, mainly just toe. Most of the pieces are "fixed." If you put on all the optional pieces your suspension will have so many links that you will basically need to take your car to a race shop to have it aligned. Maybe not, but you get the point.

Another potential con, some folks say the adjustable T-rods put too much stress on the frame with the loss of that big, fat, rubber, silicone filled, stock bushing in the front. Others say that's a non-issue. I figure we would be hearing about those problems more on this board if they were an issue, so I personally wouldn't worry using adustable T-rods.

With that said, I'm very happy with with my poly bushings in my stock T-rods and poly steering rack bushings. Of course, new shocks and springs helped quite a bit, too.
