Just curious, Why are you going with a panhard bar instead of a watts link?

Alot easier to tune & run a low roll center.. We have played with low roll center in rear suspension & get great corner exit bite.. But also have designs in watts link that are for other cars with more room to package... In suspension design their is always a compromise in packaging..

Progress has slowed momentarily because of a few pressing small jobs, but that should change in the next week or two. Here are a few pics for now.

We are starting the prototype tank for our Chevelle frame. Once the tank is fitted and we are happy with fitment and function, it will be sent out for production. Thanks to Hector @ Ricks Tanks.
