Look at how good the AU utes handled with leaf springs.
My stock from new XG Longreach was fine you could drive it with complete control at all times.
XC van was fine as well.
A mate crashed in his XY 302 Fairmont real bad in 1979, if he only knew better how to set such a car up.

Yeah... Bathurst lap times woulda been much improved if they’d of raced superior handling utes or panel vans instead of Phase 111s with their crap rear suspension!
(And I thought I’d heard it all?.... what tripe!)
