Default More info concerning the suspension setup

Hi again,
I forgot to describe the chassis setup of my car. Here goes:
Poly bushes everywhere
Edelbrock shocks at the front, combi coil overs at the rear (don't know what brand - bought from old stock on e-bay)
Stock axel with 3.08:1 gears
Disc brakes all round
Stock front springs
Stock 4-leaf rear springs with the second leaf doubled by reusing another old leaf - so that makes a kind of home grown 5-leaf spring.
Lakewood traction bars

All this makes the car handle quite well for not too much expense and absolutly no bodywork modification. However, a bit brutal on the rear according to back seat passengers!

Regards,
Rafe
