Dan's 1997 Camaro, aka project "NYTRDR"

I had gotten the adjustable one. My car is lowered, and the rear was not perfectly centered, when you change the ride height you will change the location of the rear, so I figured Id spend the extra few bucks, although certainly no need for it if you dont plan to lower it much.

[mcalus]

My 93 was way off when I lowered it. It really helped having an adjustable one when I needed all the clearance I could get on both sides when trying to squeeze the widened 10 spokes back there. For the little of extra money it is, it's worth it imo.

[DanDalessandro]

I'll decide what I get when the time comes. Right now, I'm not buying anything right now as my budget for the month is out Maybe if I sell some crap... that'd be better...

I appreciate everybody's input on this.

I used both, on my lt1 car it was fine with a non adj...if i remember correctly i bought an adj for the ls1 but really didnt need it either

[DanDalessandro]

So I'm ordering UMI LCAs and PHB. I'm going with the non adjustable LCAs and on car adjustable PHB.. Good choice?

[s.reef]

Why not do founders? Nothing against UMI, Ive had both brands but you save some money on the founders stuff

[DanDalessandro]

Founders is 219 for on car adjustable and rod ends... I'm going with that I think. Might as well get the adjustable in case I need it down the road, i won't have to spend more..

Yeah.. i think I'm going with this..

[DanDalessandro]

Err.. rod ends are not good for DD.. Going with poly bushings looks like..

Figured out what I'm going with..Going with the 3 piece poly LCA

Yay for money spending!

If youre worried about nvh at all use stock rubber bushings. I have founders adjustable rod end LCAs and i havent noticed any "noise" or negative effects from them.

[pferris]

Those are exactly what I have, and Ive been quite happy with them for the year or so they have been on my car.

[DanDalessandro]

good shit.
Drove the car this morning on 59.. Went from crooks to squirrel. It was "stable" on the way there.. On the way back, well it was terrible. Couldn't even stay on 59. Took Adams exit. The rear was swinging side to side. So, when these come in, I'll be doing the headers too! Those will be after the suspension because I know the headers will be a pain

[MeenZ28]

Good choice, I was wondering why you were going with rod ends but didn't say anything. I have that PHB on my car and couldn't be happier with it.

It was 1 am.. brain wasn't functioning.

I think I'm going to put the front on ramps, and back on stands. That way I can do the suspension first, then throw in the headers.. I believe I'll be starting next week.. Hooray!

Were you doing long tubes? You are going to want it higher than a set of ramps. Id do the suspension, and then put the front up as far as you feel comfortable for the headers

[DanDalessandro]

Yeah I'm doing long tubes. The ramps are pretty high but I'm not going to use them.. I'd have em on already. Don't feel comfortable doing anything like this home alone at my house.. Bad shit can happen.. [emoji53]
