New suspension for the Z...

In the past week, I have been quite busy installing new goodies on my car. The biggest ones are my new Hotchkiss Lower control arms and Adjustable Panhard Bar. Anyone thinking about putting these on your car, I HIGHLY recommend them. They fit excellent and look really good too. (Red powdercoating) And as soon as I can afford the new shocks, I will make good use of the APR and install the new Progressive Eibach springs I have sitting in my room

I also did a complete Headlight conversion in which I will be posting pictures of in the appearance section very soon.

I have the BMR LCA's and adjustable panhard rod... very similar pieces... Ilike Hotchkis and BMR... Nice mod

If I may suggest... go with QA1 shocks... there are not any better shocks for 4th gen F-bodies... And you can drag them, road race them, and daily drive them, all with the turn of a ****... They are a little pricey,but well worth it... Go to either LS1Speed.com or TByrne.com they have good prices on them, and TByrne throws sales on them ALL the time...

Good luck with the future mods...

You really only need adjustable if you are going to lower it...

I would say non adjustable... I have an adjustable, and I havent touched the thing... I want to get rid of mine and get a solid one, just for strength in drag racing, but that will have to come later....

It's cool to say you have an adjustable one, but unless you lower it or plan on road racing it, its not really worth it...

I would just use it to recenter the rear-end when you put big tires on it, i.e. my car I need one, don't have one yet.
