G link Install, Super cool stuff, Lots of pics
 

We had a chance to install the new G link is Louis Barraza's badd ass 68 Camaro we painted last month. We used a 12 bolt rear and did the weld on brakcets on this car. Turned out fantastic, I am VERY impressed. the stuff came very well packaged, fit perfect, and looks amazing. I have not been able to drive the car yet. This is a on going project. But knowing what the original G Bar system is capable off, add the adjustability of the G Link, and the extra beef in the complete system. And it is a no brainer this will be even better then the original G bar.



I will have a G link installed in my own car very soon and will be able to do driving impression and track testing. If I ever get time to work on my own stuff.

A pair of brackets weld to the inner frame rails, pretty basic welding here in a solid easy to weld area. They also self locate pretty well, so it is almost impossible to screw them up.

A bolt in crossmember ties the to brackets together

The shocks can be mounting in multiple vertical positions to adjust ride height. Additional ride height adjustment can be made buy running the coil spring up and down the shock. Multiple spring rates are available to suit your individual needs.

The upper shock has 3 horizontal positions to change the shock angle.

Here you can see the loower bar has 4 vertical positions, the upper bar has 2 positions for instant center changes. Really cool stuff.

Look at the size of that lower bar! Really beefy! The Offset bushing moves the lower bar inboard on mini tub cars for excellent tire to lower bar clearance. Weld on brackets, or a ready made Fab 9 housing are required for offset bar mini tub aplication. NON mini tub cars can use the original mono or multi leaf mounts, or can use weld on brackets or a ready made Fab 9 housing

Just WOW!

Looks awesome, I have a 68 and getting ready for the rear suspension. How much is the kit going for?

Frank ,

The original G-bar , is it allso okay with minitubs ??

There are various options, but this kit was right at $2250 and included the weld jig. A couple options can run the cost up and down a few pennies. the uretahne kit is only $1800 and change.

It looks nice but just seems kinda of expensive for what it is. Is there a rear sway bar?

All the good 4 links that actually work are going to be in the high teens to lows 2s. The Base G bar, $1839, Prodigy Bar, $2100, G Link $2139, DSE $2195.

Soon as I get all the sheet metal back on my car I will have to send you a PM and get something ordered up. Thanks Frank for the Info.

Looks killer, Frank! Thanks for posting the photos. When can we expect to see it at ride height? How much more ride height adjustment is left in it?

It has no weight in it right now. Except for the glass it is a bare shell, so it will settle quite a bit. It has a good couple inches left in it anyway.
