You can get the rear sway mount/support brackets tabs from Ridetech if you have an older air/bar setup.

Not much of an update thou, got the rear end centered and was kinda bummed w the lower control arm location ... seems if you keep your leaf spring it's 42" c2c and if you flip the arms and weld on it's 40" c2c So I lost an inch of clearance per side using the perches .... these may come off before I'm done.

Used RT jig and centered the upper arm location, just waiting on my tranny ... should be able to pick it up today and get er bolted onto the engine.


Centered and set!


RT's jig for the upper arms


Lost wheel clearance w the bars on the perch vs welded on


My new acquisition!


Should get the tranny today but then it's off to elk camp for a few days ... hopefully get things going next week when I return ...

Have a safe Halloween, thanks for looking ...

I am between school semesters and had to move quick to get things going .... school started yesterday so things will slow down some.

Picked up the 4L60E on Friday and got her cleaned up a little .... at least its respectable to put under the car now! My roll bar came in ... looks good too! What I liked was Wild Rides already fish mouthed the bars and was fitted to a 67 Camaro, I just need to trim the height of the main hoop and trim the trunk bars; still contemplating the harness bar ... WELD IN or REMOVABLE, Wild Rides just tacked it in place.



Cleaned up the 4L60E!

Roll bar is 1 3/4 .120 DOM!

Fish mouthed and test fit in a 67 Camaro .... NICE!

Not much of an update ..... school started and I will be preoccupied for awhile, need to get the tranny and engine together and get the rear end set.

More to come, thanks for looking ....
