i got a piece of pipe that had the right innner diameter to match the stock
camaro/nova/TA rear shackle bushings. the i laid it on the bottom inside of
my frame, marked a hole, cut out the hole, pushed the piep through to flush
with the outside of the frame, and then welded it up with a boxing plate on
the inner portion. the shoved the bushings in, bolted up the shackles...
DONE!(after cooling the weld)
on ym truck-i used a panhard bar to make the axle stay centered. i
had problems with my wheels rubbing so i installed it. double benifit-it
kept it from rubbing and by installing it driver frame to pass axle-it makes
my open diff feel and act like a posi-i spin my DRIVER wheel before the pass
side.
ask away! =)
