I just saw an ad in the paper for rear suspension parts for my 70 chevelle. I was just wondering if $200 would be worth it for..

-Southside upper/lower control arms
-Moroso Tick Springs
-GM sway bar, and an airbag kit.
-Competition engeneering shocks.

I wanted a stronger rear suspension and i was going to buy soon. Sounded like possibly a good deal. Thanks for any help.

are you kidding? thats a steal.

ssm bars are $160.00 or so new

air bags are around $60

sway bar over $100

Comp Eng. shocks $50-60 a piece.

not a big deal unless you plan on trying different pinion angles. with the SSM bars you set the pinion angle before drilling the last bolt holes. you could always buy the adjustable uppers later if you decide you want them.
