You really need to run one or the other. Camaro's do not normaly have a full frame under them. They have a sub frame that is like a short frame only under the front. DSE makes an entire sub frame replacement with their suspension. The quadra link and the Lateral dynamics rear suspension is made to work with the stock body with no frame under the back. only kind of thin frame rails built into the body. The dse and lateral dynamics systems work great. The max g chassis as a whole is kind of like the next step up. With the max g you can get vette front susp with a triangulated rear 4 link and have basicly no flex because you are adding a full, very rigid frame. I like the lateral dynamics rear a little better myself, but the triangulated rear is realy good as well. The max g chassis requires a lot more work. I hope you know how to weld.Let me say that again the max g chassis requires alot more work and time. You basicly cut the floor out and weld the chassis to the body. Welcome to the site. Feel free to ask as many questions as you want. That is what this site if for.

71nova the max requires more work?i would say the dse quad link would require a lot of work who knows maybe someone could chime in?maybe frank from prodgy could answer

im like a kid that wants two candys but can only get one. that stance is amazing but it seems like a alot of work and money :_paranoid i am swaying towards an apossing side each time i open a thread this is so frustrating but exiting at the same time

HiwayMan You are the expert on the Max g chassis since you have one in your beautiful Camaro. I have seen lots of quadra links installed and they honestly don't look that hard to install. I would tackle it. I PERSONALY think it would be a whole lot easier than installing a max g chassis under my car. Maybe its easier than it seems, like I said you know more about the max g chassis than I do. I do know the sub frame swaps are easy. The only thing you really need to fabricate is your steering shaft. Other than that they for the most part bolt on. I do not know Ssonics level of building skill and I don't think the max g chassis is for a begining builder.

hey david i think i just confused myself kind of like when you have done something it seems a lot easyer than it was?so im going to retract my statements,also deffinatly no expert hope i didnt confuse anyone thanks hiwayman

the dse,lateral dynamics or any other rear susp can be done in way shorter time then completely building floor pans,wheel tubs etc, for the max g
thats pretty easy to figure out,

you know i really think the max g is out of my range for this project but will definetly try it on the next one. now i am having a hard time deciding whichrear package to get. quadra link or three link. :( i have read about both quite a bit but i guess i need to learn a little more. i just can't tell whish is truley better for me because most post are opinions and no offence but it seems like no matter what someone gets it turns out to be the "best"

Sonic you have to build the car for you and no one else. figure out what you want the car to do - pt, race, street, show, etc. Only when you starting talking performance and pushing the limits will you find the differences in the suspensions. We have DSE front and rear on our 69 and it rides awesome. I also had stock suspension on my 68 and it road awesome too. But I could never get the ride height with the stock components. Our goal was stance and ride. There are alot of knowledgable people on this board I hope we can help you out.

It's pretty simple and if you are like me at all, the check book balance will facter in as well.

DSE Q-Link = Great for the street, more adjustments than stock, great stance, and perfect for a day at the track, at a good price and a excelent company!

Lateral's 3-Link = Another great company, the suspension is basically the next step and designed as the ultimate suspension package that will fit into a first gen camaro, but the stock back seat won't work and the price is a bit more than the DSE kit.

So the real question is what is you honest plans and or goals for the car and how much are you willing to spend? Also, are you planning on using full interior? If so, I beleive with the 3-link you can retro fit 4th gen rear seats.

Just a small clarification on our (Lateral Dynamics) 3-Link setup, if it is relevent.

Yes, the stock rear seat will need to be modified, just as it will be if the consumer would mini-tub the car, which frankly is the type of customer we are targeting in general. If you are looking at gaining true performance out of your car, you'll no doubt be adding a lot of power, and will need to put that power to the ground, bigger rear tires are good in this regard, and a great rear suspension system is also key to getting you where you need to be. If you tub the car, your rear seat won't fit anymore, and will need to be modified. If you are willing to cut the car to tub the car, then there's little reason that you wouldn't want to further trim to install a superior suspension system, it's not much more than you've done already.

The cost of our system includes a brand new, completely welded, extremely strong and very sexy rear end housing by default. You don't need to source fabrication out to someone else, nor do you need to worry about hurting parts if you make a mistake.

I'd encourage anyone to look at our website, we're sponsors on this site, just look for the Lateral Dynamics logo and you'll get far more info than I can type here. In addition, we have quite a few more irons in the fire and will be intorducing many more exciting performance handling solutions in the near future, including front end components.

Whatever you decide, have a great time with your project!
