with the G's (and i'm not talking about my friends in the ghetto, but a unit of inertial force on a body that is subjected to rapid acceleration or gravity) that the rear may experiance, i want to auto cross this car, and have the option of going on a drift course with the opertune chance. I do realise that is acomplishable with both rear IRS's. As i would *imagine* drifting a car would be harder on the rear end with the camber set off, and high RPMS, and there for being harder on the u joints, hubs, and half shafts, where as the dual controll arms would only be hard on the hub. But then again, i dont surly know the answer to that.

This thread isnt about what i think, but what i dont know. You clearly know more about the C4 style rear end then i do, and i'm am taking your knowledge as an influence. Again i'm sorry if i came off in any different of a way to you or anyone else.

I still need to find out about the adaptor for a C5 rear end how ever.

Bob,

You've got nothing to apologize for. Maybe Deuce just had a bad day. He is always very knowledgeable and helpful. I'm sure he will be back around to assist you as well as some others. Don't get discouraged, this is a great site with alot of information. I don't know anything about your issue except to say I think there is a member here that is building and adapter to do what you want. I'm just not sure if it's for the same rear you want to use. Try to search out Rat Rod Russel. He may be able to help.

Check this thread out, I think he talks about it in here.
