Everthing has Sold. Thanks Lateral-g:thumbsup:
This is a New Detroit Speed (DSE) mini-tub kit for a 68,69 Camaro, part # 041206 . The kit does "not" include the wheel tubs or cross member, they are already mounted on car and then changed my mind. This is the 3" drop version! Shocks and bushing kit were purchased separately and are included.

Kit contains new, never mounted:

3" Drop Leaf Springs #040102 SOLD
Urethane Bushing Kit #041401 SOLD

Offset Shackles #040901 DSE list $275.00
Adjustable Leaf Spring Pads #040201 DSE list $60.00
U-Bolts #040701 DSE list $35.00
Lower Shock Plates (staggerd) #040301L 040301R DSE list $70.00
Upper Shock Mounts #040501 DSE list $22.00
Koni Mini-tub Shocks #041301 DSE list $210.00

Your rite on the money Todd. What actually changed my mind was your car. Seen it at Prodigy rite before it was shipped back to you. Talked to Frank about stance and ride quality, thats all it took. By the way really, really nice car Todd, glad to see your enjoying it.

I wouldn't go as far as say it sucks, there are many completely sorted cars on here running leaf springs still. A well thought out leaf setup is much more predictable than a link setup that was put together without much thought of it's geometry.

This is a great kit for someone not wanting to go through the hassle but still wants the looks and performance.

EVERYONE here has changed their mind, bought the part and sold it for half, etc,etc,etc. Keep in mind the gentleman is listing parts for sale, lets try and keep the comments to the parts in question and not bash someone's personal choices. Thanks.

Your correct, it is a great deal, but todays designs verses 60/70's technology has a lot to be desired,

CE, good luck on the sale, your right on the price for the parts, I sold mine in that area, minus tubs too, mine didnt come with tubs when I bought it.

Thanks Rhino, Stuart and Steve, I appreciate your comments.
I also think this kit is great for a cruiser, weekend warrior or Camaros that hit the local car shows. Thats what I bought it for, but now want to do a little more with the car.

Thanks again guys.
