What year model Corvette suspension does your frames use?

BTW, those pics look good.
C4, 1984-1996. I prefer to use the 1988-1996 specifically because of the superior suspension geometry, better shock mounting design and bigger front brake calipers and rotors.

But you can also do a live axle rear. The provisions to move the center crossmember and install different control arm system have already been incorporated to the design. I'll just need to design the kit for the axle.

Finally I'm thinking about designing a front suspension that will be supplied DIY and will be narrower for guys looking at deep offset wheels or in my case heavy duty parts and bearings for building a towing truck with big truck brakes. I plan on building a small haul truck for the shop show rig in the near future.
