Need advice on rear suspension setup...
I would like to know what you guys would recommend me using to upgrade my panhard bar, coilovers, lower control arms and torque arm.
I do plan on going with t-56 and ls1 in the future, but would like to build up suspension first. I don't know if the torque arm would even connect to the t-56 and the t5 which i got now, but would be great if it was universal so i could fit it up soon as it comes in. Advice is accepted and appreciated.

Re: Need advice on rear suspension setup...
i am in love with the pro tour setups. that is what im going for. bigger rims than factory and decent amount of hp, nothing crazy. but i want it to handle corners very well. it will not be driven crazy all the time. no auto x or anything, but thats the setup i want.

Sometimes ya just need to hang on for the gurus who pop in on weekends due to work.
Pro-Tour 3rd gen sounds bitchin'!!

I am learning myself, & TGO has alot of ppl who know this shiznit really well!!
We are planning a Bigblock swap for next spring, & the info is detailed, as is the LS // LT swaps, tranny swaps, tires, brakes...etc.

I use the T-5 mount for the torque arm with my T-56.
Just got a Spohn tube torque arm. The poly front mount fits in the stock holder.
