Well, the Pinto's were way light in the back end, most handling issues with the Pinto's were caused by the back end breaking loose and the driver over correcting. If you didn't catch it the first time, you were gone. The geometry on the MII is improved from the Pinto. The Pinto's were of course unibody construction and flexed terribly. The quality MII units are also tubular A-Arms instead of stamped steel and inherently more rigid. Last, all the good MII kits have anti-dive built into them which makes them work great under hard braking....
