I have a pretty good fabricator here who can do the work, but I just need some advice on what would work best in the back to tuck those wheels in properly and maintain the best handling and height possible. I'm not too concerned either way if the rear seat stays or has to go.
Thanks for any ideas you might have... |
well a back half set up would not offer the best handling, as the parrallel 4 bar with have quite a bit of roll bind....you could always go with a DSE 4 bar kit it will allow a 10" wheel with no problem. You will have to do some sheetmetal surgery to allow the 22's. You may also run into problems turning the car with 20's on the front! I owuld recomend a 19' 20' combo. Also an airbag will offer as much(maybe more because of adjustability) performance as a coil over on a street car.
