Van Steel
I just wanted to post something saying I have been working with Van Steel in Fla and they have been awesome. I purchased a coil over conversion kit, complete offest trailing arms, new differential, new adjustable camber rods and half shafts. The half shafts look like they came off a freakin school bus!!!
(Making me think I could have put a few more HP in it!)
All the old is out and working on the new this week. Everything is going good. No more mono spring so bigger rims and tires are next on the list.
Thanks again Van Steel- I will be back for more upgrades as needed!!

If you are doing their front coilover kit you will probably have to cut the frame inside the spring pockets to clear the coilovers. I had to widen my hole about an inch in each direction. Im wishing Id made it a little bigger now too but will see how close the coilover spring comes when I put my engine and trans on the frame and jump up and down on it. Its a very nice kit if you are willing to cut a little on the spring pockets.

I have been trying to work through some issues with my 1968 vette rear suspension since upgrading it with some of their parts. So far they have been eager to help but it does not appear to be an easy solution. I hope we can get it all resolved.
