Yes,
Griggs has a rear coil over setup with two shock options. Like I said above the race shock has extreme damping and not very street friendly. The street shock should be best for us normal folk (not darius

). This shock uses the stock location at the axle and the body for mounting.

I also heard Central Coast Mustang has a rear kit also. I saw their axle mount setup and I think it adds to many levers (read torque moment) to the shock assembly. Could make it prone to failure in an extreme situation.

When you change to the coil over you can change your lower control arms to a style that does not have a spring perch. This means less unsprung weight. So when you buy your torque arm or 3-link and panhard bar

you can remove your uppers and have a lighter rear end.
