Is that just the air ride package they sell for the cuda or something completely custom?

Hey Ned,
Hows your exhaust mock up coming along? Dave |
I actually havent messed with the exhaust yet..
Its the Air Ride kit but we cut the brackets down on the rear and channeled the k-frame up front so it will sit about 1.5 inches lower than the standard Air Ride set-up I ordered my Rushforth wheels this week....lead time is about 6-8 weeks right now but hopefully sooner :) Then I need to get my rearend measured and ordered. I hope to get all the suspension nailed down by the end of the year. |
Which Rushforth's did you end up going with?

Which Rushforth's did you go with Ned? Car looks killer---

Ned Ordered the Super spokes in 19x8 and 20x12. Thanks for going with Rushforths, Ned!

Thanks guys...
Jason Rushforth has been fantastic to work with... I've been bugging the hell out of him for the last month or so...back and forth emails....me changing my mind....asking alot fo questions etc etc....hes been great through the whole thing....thanks again Jason. I cant wait to get the rims.... I went back and forth on the Super Spoke and Rated X....both are aweseom rims. It was a tough choice and I must have changed my mind 1000x...... just something clicked with me just a tad more on the Super Spoke..... I dont think I could have gone wrong with either one. |
Time for some new pix.....
Well it was a Wilwood Xmas again !!!! Last time I just got my hubs, hats, rotors etc..... my caliper came alittle later. They are fricking awesome....and huge !!!! They are the W6A 6 piston with the optional silver color. http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...I/IMG_3978.jpg http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...I/IMG_3977.jpg http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...I/IMG_3975.jpg http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...I/IMG_3980.jpg Wilwood still needs to make the caliper mounts for my application on the front. I dont have my Dana 60 yet for the rear, so I cant mount the rear stuff yet since the mock up rearend is way different. |
Once I finalized my brake combo I went back to the wheel fitment check...man was that a huge PITA..... I changed hubs and hats a couple of time to get a decent track width and try and get some dish to the rim etc etc....so it was a ton of changing back and forth and measuring over and over. So I'm glad thats over. The rear was much easier since I'm having a rearend made to specs..... the front was much harder since it all turns etc. I only hope I made the right choices with the wheel BS etc...time will tell....
I used my Camaro rims as a trial just to see if a real rim/tire fit okay and check the BS one more time. I used Marty's Mount Mate to do most of the measuring but it never hurts to have an actual rim on there. http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...I/IMG_3994.jpg Then I went ahead and made some wheel stands. I had some wood lying around and I will need them for the rearend measuring etc so I spent a couple of hours ( is that better Greg?) making these... those are my old mock up wheels for now. http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...I/IMG_3997.jpg http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...I/IMG_4000.jpg http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...I/IMG_4001.jpg |
Looking good NED!!!
