 SUSPENSION

I found a 32mm 1LE hollows sway bar on Ebay for a real deal and 21 mm rear sway bar.

Plus the  deal of a life time on Ebay for an Aluminum double adjustable Panhard bar. Really easy to instal but a little more tought to align right.

I instaled a set of 1.6 inch drop spring from Cannuck Motorsport when it was with the V6 but with the LS1 i put a set of Eibach prokit spring  and a set of front KYB agx adjustable struts. Still need to change the rear shock with KYB agx.

Here it's not the best pics ever but you can see the diference  in the wheel space.

Before                                         after.

It was a tough job, because of the rust on the strut perch... That was a long fight , but in the end i won by using a cutting wheel and a grinder...after 2 night off visious fight...they surrinder... lol

Plus for more rigidities i put a strut-tower bar from

http://www.hotpart.com/  realy good product and look good under the hood.

The  subframe connector  are from Granatelli and are weld in place.

The stock lower control arm are changed too, for tubular control arm with urethane bushing to reduce the wheel hop. I am considering to instal lower control arm relocation braket but will see this summer how it goes!

For alignement setting, i will use the setup from

The spec are  Camber: -1.4°, Caster: +3.6°, Toe: 0" . Again will see on the track how it goes and will RnD after that.
