Good info James...thanks!! :thumbsup:

what about a 10" on a 68 w/o losing any turning radius?

Blake Foster 12-03-2010 03:11 PM

you may loose a bit but nothing to worry about,always a bit of give and take we have more experiance fitting the 10 on 69's. probably the best example will be youthpastor in the next couple weeks and AWR on monday afternoon after his car shows up i'm thinking the wheels and tires are the first thing to be installed.

I am wondering if there is a difference in wheel placement between L&H, ATS , or stock spindles. We ended up rehooping to 6.5 bs with ats spindles and expecting about the same clearance. I am picking up the wheels Monday and will post picks of them mounted as well.

Hey Mike the ATS spindle puts the mounting flange in the factory Camaro location, the pontiacs are generally wider by about 1/2" from the factory, "Wide Track" you know. lol

Ok, I have a bit of a beef with that Mario. You can't expect companies to be on the forums every day making sure every question is answered, we have work to do! Honestly I only come on here when my computer is running FEA or something and I can't do anything else.

I'm on Pro Touring quite often and occasionally come on to Lateral-G to answer questions, BTW.

I think it is worth mentioning in this thread that while the Art Morrison crew might not be posting a ton on the forum, they're only a phone call away. I've been contemplating a Morrison front suspension for a new project of mine and the staff over there were more than helpful in answering all of my questions and giving me advice.

DSE has some of the best customer service available as well. I've called over there more times than I can remember to order different sway bars and quadralink brackets and they have always been able to get me the exact parts I needed.

Regardless of who you choose you will be well taken care of, so figure out which one is best for YOU, and go for it.

Snappy Travis has made his decision and the parts are in the works.

Matt, the fact that you, Craig, and Art literally stopped everything you guys were doing when I showed up at your shop pretty much un-announced told me everything I needed to know about AME's customer service - awesome! I've yet to meet anyone who hasn't had positive experiences with AME's products and service.

That said, I'll say the same for DSE - anytime I've contacted them they've been very responsive and helpful.
