Re: Drag Racing Suspension
I built a pro-street shortbed out of a '70 C/20 in the early-90s. Never got to put it on the track before I sold it. It came together pretty easily. But, I didn't do the hard stuff myself. I have a guy on my road who does race car chassis, roll bar, and back-half out of his garage. Since you cut the frame off anyway, a longbed is a fine candidate. 4-link/coil-over and narrowed Dana 60 5-lug built by Mark Williams. The truck was a Stepside, so it was easy to shorten the bed. Front suspension was stock lowered with spindles/springs.
