The street lynx is his own made for the e-body. Its basically an the air bar setup with coilovers but it is his. You can even look at pictures of both systems and you can see that its the same idea but there are differences in the parts. Goodluck!

So are the upper and lower bars adjustable like his A-body 4-link or are they the fixed black bars from the air bar setup?

Thanks

Both uppers and lowers are adjustable. Another reason its different from the air bar.

Thanks, that's what I was looking for. I've been holding back on the air ride version because of the lack of adjustability. So does this one mount the shocks in the front or rear of the axle? The a-body's are in front.

I appreciate the insight and time.

They are also in front of the axle, just like the a-body.

I didnt want to go with the air ride because of the added expense and Im still kinda hesitant on the performance aspects of it. All of the comparisons and tests they do are vs. the 40 yr old stock suspension systems. Anything you fork out big bucks for BETTER be an improvement over 40 yr old technology.

What I would like to see is a comparison of a car with aftermarket coilovers(QA1, Varishocks, whatever), upper and lower control arms, spindles, sway bar, the whole works. Run it around a track and then swap on an air ride setup on the same exact car and run it around the track. If it proves to be better, THEN I would be sold. Im patiently waiting..
