Works on most any chassis and rear axle configuration. Controls rear axle laterally and works in conjunction with multi-link suspensions.

Center pivot link is made from 1/4-inch thick plate steel. Gain Control of Your Rear Axle’s Lateral Movement with Our Universal Watts Link Kit Factory suspensions, including leaf spring setups and triangulated four links provide some lateral control of the rear axle housing, but this control often comes at the cost of binding or suspension limitations. When upgrading these suspensions to such setups as a parallel multi-link with coilovers for additional control of your rear axle’s placement and the minimization of pinion angle change under acceleration, you will find that these systems do not have a way to control lateral axle movement when cornering. That is where a Watts link suspension becomes essential. While many OEMs have used a Panhard bar to control lateral axle movement, very few have used a Watts link suspension in their production cars. This mainly comes down to packaging and cost. Panhard bars are very simple to manufacture and are much easier to package under the rear of a rear wheel drive vehicle and still allow routing over the axle and to the rear of the car. The Watts link suspension, on the other hand, takes up more packaging space and usually requires more room between the rear axle and the body of the car

That old saying "you get what you pay for" can be applied here. Not impressed at all. I ended up scrapping it & went back to the panhard bar.
