Absolutely Awsome Suspension Upgrade
I'm a believer!
When I bought my 1980 L82, The front and rear suspensoin was shot. I found a fully tunable suspention at EKLERS (Mid America and Zip don't have it). This system is '63-'82 (they have one for '88-'96 also) Max Performance Suspension Package. It bolts in with NO alterations. It replaces the coil spring front with a mono-spring setup. Combined with Cooper Cobra GT Radials my car is now untouchable in the turns. I try to tell everone about this suspention since it is absolutely mind blowing. You can adjust ride height and spring responce on all four corners. (with just a wrench, no pulling or changing componants) It runs about $2350 plus shipping. It includes everything for conversion, upper and lower A-arms, Blistein shocks, front and rear swaybars, front and rear monosprings, bushings, struts, etc. If you're looking for an upgrade and not concerned about keeping your Vette original, check it out. |

Now, almost a year later, I'm am still very pleased with the kit.
35 mph turns at 50 plus. Great balance in the twisties. No body roll, flat and fast as hell. ;)The "Starship" hangs very well, thinkin' of installing 5 pt harness so that I can hang with 'er. :D |

I should have included this earlier, I understand that "Vette Brakes" developed and also sells this system. As I mentioned before, I got mine through Ecklers.
