Hey everyone, so far the 67 is still a POS, but it is slowly comin along. The rear suspension is complete alonmg with most of the front and the front brakes. Here are a few pics so far of what we got:

Looking good!

What is the set up on the rear leaf spring. Is it some kind of anti-tramp or ladder bar designed to stop wheel hop? Who makes it?

The rears are mono leaf springs and those bars are the competition engineering slide-a-link traction bar system. They look nice, have yet to drive it or do anytype of racing, so we will see!

Marc,

Which rear springs are those? More specifically what spring rate, spring width? Where did you get them? Which front brake hoses did you use, how long, where did you route them, any pics?

I ask because I have the same Wilwood kit on the front of my 68 and bought the recommended Wilwood stainless hoses. They seem a little short.

Thanks,
Eric

For the rear stuff I have no idea. A local guy got a 4 link setup and didnt need any of that and sold me the slide-a-links, hd shakles and leafs for super cheap. But from what I recall the leafs are the caltrac ones...
As for brake hoses, does this help at all???

yes it does help thank you. That was the other way I was going to mount them. RIght now the SS hose goes towards the front, then down to the caliper.
