All new suspention parts for rear...
Okay i know most will say go to sophn for the parts but i just whent thru his web site and i did a little price check on just 3 products , the LCA, tourqe arm, and panhard bar and it was about 900 bucks for just those 3 things and thats not with shipping. now i was woundering is there any good alteravtives then sophn? i donty mean to put down his products but i dont think i can spend that much right now for just those 3 things.
becuz when i put my used (my new) 9 bolt posi disk rear in i want everything new back there and also everything to be good for the track becuz i want to get into racing alot on the track with this car. and i was also lookin at his SFC and i dont really like how u have to weld the connector to the pinch weld on the floor board. ive seen others that u just weld on the subframes and then the little arms off the connectors to subframes. i was lookin at the Kenny brown SFC and would i have to do the same to weld them in like the pics on Sophn's website? or would i just weld on the subframes? becuz my floor boards are not in that great condition and one spot on my pinch weld it got bent and all that fun crap.
but seriously if anyone can help me build a good/great susption for the strip/street that would be very great.
and ill most likly get an edelbrock STB also
sorry this took so long i just needed to get all or most of my questions out now.

I just ordered my rear suspension parts from Thunder Racing. I opted for the BMR Torque Arm, LCA, LCA relocation brackets, adjustable Panhard Rod & Eibach Pro Kit Springs, total was $769.89, keep in mind that the price includes lowering springs. I also have the Kenny Brown SFC's but I cant tell you how it is welded on because I had them installed, I'll check later.

I 've got the BMR stuff and have had 0 problems at all. I also went with hotchkis on the lca's and panhard bar because I got it on a discount and I havent had any problems with them eather. Both good products. (BMR for TA and relocate bracketss)
