Front B/J coilover

There was this big thread on the STF about this and I want to research this a bit further.

Red9Design is selling the EZ Rider kit. I know that Ricola has it installed in his Speedster. Can anybody give me some feedback on this setup? How does it compare to the normal setup?
I do know that it will still have all the negative features of the B/J beam with trailing arms but the price of the kit is not too bad and if I get some improvment out of it it might be worth it.

I got some information that in the Käfer CUP race series a couple of bugs used a similar setup and had problems with the lower tailing arm because of the spring pressure.
If the off roaders use kits like that what type of trailing arms do they use? The stock ones?

I saw some nice drawing of custom wishbone setups for B/J cars. I am looking for a bolt on kit......I am too far into the project and the body is nearly paint ready so I do not want to make anymore modification on the body.

Thanks for you thoughts,

Alex
