Project: PBR-Built Z/28

Fred...

Those shocks almost gave me a heart attack trying to install the sway bar without touching ANYTHING!

Huron Speed is direct with Nasty Performance who can get about any fuel system component needed!

Can you get the racetronix setup?

bueller?

[JoeliusZ28]

Put a solid 8+ hours of work in today with a buddy Jarrod and got quite a bit done! Started off trying to make a fuel line plan, then got ADD and moved to the suspension when we started running into the EVAP crap I didn't even realize was still on my car. Got the rear suspension mostly done... springs, shocks and relocation brackets. Thinking about ordering a sway bar now, kind of forgot about that. I am hoping the springs settle just a weeee bit because it sits maybe 1/2" lower than before. And just a heads up for anyone doing relocation brackets, apparently they require longer bolts. Going to have to hit the hardware store.

Also, there was a change in plans today. I've been doing more homework on the SLP springs and decided I definitely want the front lower. So after trying to go conservative on this project, a set of BMR 1.25" springs are being shipped anyway! I think it is going to end up perfect stance with just a bit of rake.

the brackets didnt come with bolts?

Iirc you can order them with or without hardware.

Looks great Joel!

[JoeliusZ28]

I bought them used from someone on this site. They did have the mounting bolt at least.

Joel, I can't tell from the pictures, but the bolt that goes where the LCA used to bolt in, and now hold the bracket, should have a sleeve to keep the welded on stock bracket from being crushed.

[nascarnate326]

Good catch. Pretty important part.

[JoeliusZ28]

It does . I am quite pleased with the stellar fit of everything. Its all snug yet doesnt bind the slightest bit.

Put an angle finder on those LCA's at ride height. A good start is 1-2 degrees downhill at ride height.

We'll have to see if the springs settle any but for now it looks good

[c0ncEpT]

Looks golden like the shower!

[Lucky SOB]

I would also like to add, I can't wait to see your car without the lift kit

[nascarnate326]

Go take it for a drive and it will settle real quick.

Sure, but sort of requires a working fuel pump, fuel lines, and a torque arm
