Jag is the only one I am aware of. That is not a jag total assembly but it might be the diff, brakes and half shafts etc.

On a jag the upper locating is done by the half shaft and it has two metal u joints in it. Also has two shocks per side with small diameter coil over springs. At least that is all I have ever seen on a street rod running a jag rear end.

This might have special upper arms so they can do that dramatic drop and keep the wheels vertical...only way to do that is with nearly equal length a arms.
