Suspension help

That said, other than speaking to Alf, any and everything you need to know about this setup, I'm the man to talk to.

NOBODY has made more passes on this setup and NOBODY has 60 footed quicker than me with it!

what part of the truth and the facts don't you like? The only thing here that is funny is you replying to this thread having no clue as to how to fix this issue!

Some here think they know but I KNOW and have provided video's and photos as proof...the suspension doesn't rise when coming up on the converter AND the tires are not toed out on the wheelie! This car works!

Thanks for the info. my car also has work on front control arms was a stick car all of its life so there is no toe out when it pulls the tires .

Randy the A arms on my former Chevelle are the original and stock it rolled off the line with in 1968.

Philbilly:
I bought Alf's complete rear suspension along with his ball joints and off-set A-arm shafts last year for an A body. Total cost with shipping and duties was $ 1888.64. As 1320 said he isn't in business for himself any more but does the suspension stuff on the side. Order now cause it may take a while. Nice guy. Here's his # 604-795-2481. Danny

FWIW, Ball joint spacers are not legal in Stock.
They went away with the Jr.Stock era.

again, Alf's front end kit which is largely sold to stock eliminator racers does not include ball joint spacers nor are the ball joints relocated from the stock riveted/bolted position.
