There is a significant amount of misinformation in the forums regarding the Chassisworks g-Bar and g-Link rear suspension system for '67-69 Camaro. To clear up the confusion we have prepared a detailed response, which can be downloaded to read in its entirety.

Failure of the upper-control-arm frame rail attachment...
This image shows a torn passenger-side frame rail, with the tear extending from a sleeve that was welded in by the installer. This failure is a result of an improperly installed frame bracket. Additional detail regarding this particular installation is given in our g-Bar Misinformation document.
The car does not sit as low as I would like…
Another comment commonly made is that the g-Bar and g-Link systems do not sit low enough. This is simply a limitation of the factory body sheet metal to suspension clearance. Our g-Bar and g-Links systems were designed to not involve cutting the floor to further lower the car. However, we do now have a few new products available that allow the suspension to be lowered beyond the original travel range. We also have a new rear frame product in the works that will allow the car to sit considerably lower. It will debut at SEMA 2012, no additional info will be available before then.
