They are used for 2 totally different reasons. A watts link prevents side to side a 4 link replaces the leaf springs. If I were you I would go with a triangulated 4 link instead of a parrallel but I wouldn't use a super pivot. I've heard they have a lot of play in the links but I don't know from experience. I used a parrallel 4 link with a panhard so that I could keep the stock gas tank in the stock location but I want to replace the panhard bar with a watts link. With a triangulated 4 link you don't need a panhard bar or a watts link.

I would go with ssd, their shit is beefy as hell! If you can get a triangulated 4 link with all adjustable ends, get that! Makes it a lot easier!

Only problem with suicide doors is that sometimes you have to wait a really long time for parts. But their parts are very nice.

Dallas Hot Rod parts has long lead time also I think he has it posted on his site. Not sure what you are bagging but I can get several different configurations of 4 links at different prices($200-500) that would be in within the week they are well made. If I can help with something let me know.
