I think he's referring to the Control Freak updated front suspension.

I have Nicks suspension on my javelin. My car is at his shop in Kenosha, i'm sure he would be open to having you come up and look at it.

If I were budgeting a complete front suspension change I would at least contact FATMAN Fabrication who specialises suspension changes including things like flaming river steering with power.
FATMAN Fabrication advertises fit for early Nashes and Metropolitans and a multitude of others and as their ad says, "And many more every day" and are at least worth contacting as their stage 2 through stage 5 options range between $1800 through $3000

Nick Alfano's suspension has everything to go complete also. I have heard good things from Control Freak and talked to Al at the shows before as well. I personally am not the biggest fan of the tubular style cross member compared to Nicks, but that's my opinion. Both units are great options and i am glad each offer these setups to the hobby
