Complete suspension setup for the bird, pics
 

Finally went over to Sam's suspension (Superman's) shop. Sam did a complete setup on the whole car. Performed, thrust angle, LCA adjustments both sides to center wheels in rear opening, panhard adjustment (wheels set perfect on the body line of the car), pinion angle (-2.5), BMR tranny mount adjusted for front on torque arm, (Camber -1.5, caster +6 & toe=0), adjusted the baer bumpstop and final 4 wheel digital alignment. I have to thank LT4Firehawk (Evan) for his (camber, caster & toe) specs. The car feels great on the street with these settings. The car now sits with a higher ride height than before, but this greatly improves the cars ability to work the suspension now. You can stick 2 fingers above the front tires to the fender, 2 1/2 on the drivers rear and almost 3 on the passenger rear. Car works much better at this ride height, so it will probably never be low, low again.

Suspension currently on the car:
BMR K-member, BMR lower A-arms, BMR upper A-arms, BMR chrome-moly adjustable torque arm, BMR tranny mount, BMR extreme engine strut brace, BMR extreme LCA's, BMR weld on re-location brackets, BMR upper panhard mount, BMR chrome-moly adjustable panhard, BAER bump-stops, HAL 12 way adjustable coilovers at all four corners, HAL springs 150# linear rate rear & 300# linear rate fronts, STRANO 35mm hollow front swaybar and 22.5mm hollow rear swaybar.
Obviously with the spring rates/HAL's this a better street strip setup than an autocross/roadrace, but I could easily change out shocks & springs to compete in the other events.

All in all, Sams was a great experience and very professional. Pricing was extremely fair for the complete setup (I thought so at least). I would definitely recommend his shop for any suspension needs.

Looks great as always.

He must have loved working on your car, the entire underside is better than brand new.

Did you drive it or trailer it to his shop? Personally I would have thrown it on a trailer after all the long hours you have put into it.

Please tell me you are going to enter some car shows this summer. I can't imagine how your car wouldn't win first place an all of them.

Believe it or not, I drove it to the shop and had some fun on the way home :D Yes, for sure this car will see some good times this summer and hopefully a car show or two ! :cool: Thanks for the vote of confidence on winning the car shows, but there are alot of guys that have really nice F-body's including your car !

omg....lol

mind if i ask a price range on that labor done by Sam's shop? is it like 500 bucks or like a few G. i wouldnt even know what something like that costs.

and you can say there are some nice car's here, but they are all just in "good" condition with nice modifications and whatnot. your car on the otherhand...... it's basically a work of art. fricken immaculate....

can't wait for some car show trophy pics.hehe:D

your car is amazing iv never seen a car that clean

Thanks for the props ! :cool:

i think that's the most i have ever seen of your car at once. wow. but yeah you drove it. congrats. go drive through mud now. haha kidding kidding

The mud, LOL

69z28,
Thanks for the huge compliment ! Price range on something like this can be anywhere from $350 to $700 depending on what Sam has to do on the car. He actually took very good care of me on the complete setup. I was out the door somehow under $300. He may just have wanted to take care of me, I don't know ?

You shouldnt have any problem winning some shows you catch a lot of the little details a lot of people would overlook unless they see the finished product, props to you.

Damn your car is so clean underneath, someday when I am retired or have enough money and time I will do my car up right like that.

That looks AWESOME!! I want the same stuf for mine!!

beautiful

Thanks for the great compliments guys

Your car is flawless, the suspension looks so amazing, as does the underside! I really need to work on suspension on my car.
