Re: 1963 - 1979 Vette four link install.
Thanks to each of you for the feedback. After pondering and measuring I have decided to install a 32" ladder bar. This can be done with a minimum amount of cutting and modifying of the body and frame. It will allow a 29.5 x 10.5W tire which will handled the power and performance I have planned.

I am just curious to what a beefed up stock Vette suspension can hold up to??

It is my understand that the weakest link is the ring gear size. The axles and other hardware can be upgraded but there is a limit to what the 3rd member will take. Vettes that run as NHRA stockers are allowed a conversion to solid rear axle so that gives an idea of the power the OE setup will handle. |

The Vette I posted about ran low 9's with the stock suspension in it NA. Small ring gear for sure. |
