Definitely Heidts. Check this catalog link.
The reason for the strut on the lower control arm of the original MII suspension was that the control arm was narrow and made of stamped steel. Without the strut, it was a true 'suicide' front end.
Replacements, such as the one by Heidts, are re-engineered with high strength components. On the Heidts unit, the stamped narrow lower MII-type strut is eliminated and replaced with a wide, triangulated unit made of DOM tubing and TIG welded. The upper strut is similarly constructed.
I can vouch for the Heidts concept because I have used it. I have never heard of Checkered Flag, so I can't comment.Last edited by Henry Rifle; 03-27-2017 at 05:01 PM.

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
