The rear end and axles from Quick Performance arrived this week. Kyle got the perches welded on so the Ride Tech four link installation is underway. Unfortunately some overzealous welding from the previous build has complicated things a bit. Kyle has to do some fabrication to the frame rails to get things to fit.

Kyle made some progress on installing the 4 link setup today.

Finally got the correct axles in - I ordered the wrong spline count

Then found out the Camaro spring pads were interfering with the parking. Oh, the joys of making third party parts cooperate with each other. Anyway, Kyle made the necessary adjustments and got it done.






So the Camaro is sitting on its own, not on the lift. Loving how it's sits now.

Got another pic from Kyle today. He rolled the Camaro away from the lift today to make room for a pickup he's working on. You can get a better sense for the stance in this pic - and also that the camber needs adjustment badly.... No engine in it right now.



The tires on the front have the same section width (275) as what used to be on the back.

Kyle did his magic to the engine - painted and got it installed.

Very well done. Engine detail looks awesome against the black bay.

Like the car's stance with the engine weight in now.
Would you mind sharing your wheel sizing, tks.
