I've had the Cape rear kit installed for several years and even though the 
bottom mounts were bent by the inclusion of too-short shocks, the top mount 
IMHO is a good design and shows no distortion whatever.

The Cape kit is similiar to the Koni drawings except it replaces the two small 
lengths of angle steel with a full width piece approximately 3 ft long. For 
pictures, see:

However having said this if I had it to do over again I'd go with the Putzke 
kit.
