2nd gen camaro rear suspension

[Muslcar]

Trying to get a consensus on the best (or second best!!) rear suspension, after DSE, that will allow for a mini tub install. I am looking for something that will perform almost as good as the DSE suspension. Money is not as important as is ease of installation. Let me know what ya'll think. Thanks in advance for your help.

For me its BMR Fabrication, I sell a ton of it and install a ton. WE have it on project Freedombird and on my personal shop car "shop beater v.3.0". For ease of install,handling, and price point it doesn't get much better than a Torque arm rear suspension with a watts link setup. The BMR unit is very easy install, about 4 hours, and allows tons of setup changes. Units designed to work with 9" (requires welding), and 10 bolt and 12 bolt specific bolt on units. the bolt on units require no welding!!! shoot me a PM or email for pricing

Chad,

Do you have any pictures of a car with the BMR setup that has an exhaust routed? I am considering this setup, but I have concerns about what I would get into trying to get an exhaust through there. I don't recall seeing pictures of the Torque Arm / Watts Link / exhaust yet.

Thanx!

I have some pics of this setup on file. Hope this helps. I am not sure of the brand or size of the exhaust.

Next to the DSE setup I would use the Jakes Rod shop torque arm. He tests all of his suspension on the track and it requires little modification in order to install.

Thanx, those were helpful. Don't suppose you have any info on the wheel/tire size on this setup? Looks like the tire could get pretty close to the rear pipe depending on the width tire used...

I'm glad someone posted that setup with exhaust run. I was worried that there wouldn't be enough room to route the pipes. I'm not a fan of under the rear exhaust. Does anyone know how big the pipes are? I wanted to run 3" exhaust all the way out. Lee @ BMR told me that it will be tight but should be able to be done. Thanks for posting the photos.

That car had 285's in the stock wheelwell. Our test car at the time of development had 335's on a 12" wheel (with a mini-tub). The car had a narrowed fuel tank and the tailpipes just had to run slightly different but 2.5" was still no problem.
