New member building a 56 Belair

[kennyd]

i personally did not like jim meyer's set-up , because the crossmember sits to low , in turn makes it hard to get the car low without having the crossmember on the ground first . also the rear is even worse than the front . if you are not woried about having the car on the ground , i believe this will drive and ride great .

i prefer airride tech. rear 4 bar set up , you can sit the car on the ground and keep more ground clearance .

i also have used a scott's front clip in a 55 ,better but it still had some problems you can get easily fixed .

fatmans , also makes a front clip . i have a real good friend who has one under a 55 it looks ok so far .

another 55 sedan we used drop spindles , power rack, tubular controll arms , and sway bars . it drove the best of all but was ugly because it still had the stock clip .

i aslo have a 57 with stock arms , sway bars , cool ride bags , and a 600
power box it drives real good also

hope this helps .
