Pauly and I got some work done on the camaro this weekend.

Quick teaser pic ... (from my crappy cell-phone camara.)



And here is one of Hardcore, working on those pesky a-arms.

Yup.

I would have had pictures up tonight, but had a slight bit of trouble, with the *cough* missing...ummmm, USB cable for the camera.

Are you going to be setting the height near the same? What's the spring rate compared to your current setup?

Right now it is down real low, seems to be doing fine there. Spring rates are 750# front 175# rear. I wouldn't mind a little stiffer, at some point I'm probably going to go to 800 or 825, and I want to put on the UE panhard brackets, if I do that, I'll probably be in the 300# rear range.

Yeah, it does, not sure how much was the tires, and how much was the spring rates. I still have a few minor kinks to work out, like the rear-bump stops, and such. And I probably should get it aligned, once I find the final height setting.

Those are bad angles to show it...

And I was going to chat with you about bump stops. I think I have a solution for the rears, but was going to see what you did in the front.
