These are the rules from Outlaw at Fall Nationals this year...

STEERING:
Must retain full, original, OEM steering gear.

SUSPENSION, FRONT:
Upper mounting point for strut assemblies must be in the factory location. Adjustable caster/camber pillowball mounts are permitted. Lower control arm may be strengthened provided factory mounting points to the chassis are maintained. Lower mounting point for strut assembly may be modified for improved caster or camber. Strut tower braces, lower tie bars, sway bars and limit straps are permitted. Traction bars/devices permitted; must be bolt on ONLY. Final decision rests with Technical Services.

SUSPENSION, REAR:
Must maintain original factory configuration. Aftermarket lower control arms, strut tower braces, lower tie bars, sway bars and limit straps are permitted. Rear suspension must maintain minimum shock travel of 1 inch. All rear suspensions must use at least one working shock absorber per wheel. Suspension modifications limited to bolt on items only. ALL OEM suspension mounts/attachment points must be utilized. Spindle mounts prohibited.

I believe what that you can use after market upper control arms, stock lower control arm that can be modded for strength(all mounting locations retained), and the spindles vary with axle manufacturer. I believe most of the DSS stuff uses factory spindles and Mark Williams use different spindles that they provide.
