stock spindle, AGR ps box, QA1 coilovers, 18x8.5 rushforths and 245 40 18s on it

i bought the car with all adjustments maxed out to make the car as low as possible....it rides like crap, rubs when i crank the wheel in both directions.
control arms basically on the bump stops

switching things around now...my goal is to just get the car as low as possible where everything is performing correctly and be able to make a proper 3 point turn or a U turn like a normal person lol


i like to lowered stance but realize the car will have to go up

Im hoping to add some global west shorter subframe bushings
replace the 350lbs springs with something stiffer

I am thinking of adding drop spindles, but then read about the TRUTURN

Im not looking to run a 275 tire...I just want to get the lowered stance and be able to turn on a 245 tire


is truturn what i need here or can I just but some drop spindles and call it a day?

thank you...Bob

My buddy just put one on his 69 Nova, which is the same kit as the 67-69 Camaro. It's a big block car which can have fitment issues on it's own if the frame stands and mounts aren't correct. But in his case he could not get it to clear the headers (tried Hooker and custom Lemons headers). The shop called Ridetech and they told them headers wouldn't work with that system.

I know the install pics show headers but I believe it's an LS swap car. I would call and verify from Ridetech first if that will be an issue with what you're doing. Other than that the shop doing the work had installed these before on other cars (not first gens) and liked the system and had no fit issues.
