We sell quite a few G based rear suspensions. For you, G Link for sure. The G Link has added adjust ability the G Bar does not have.
Here are some pics of one we installed recently, you can see the adjust ability
Also, for drag racing especially. Plan to add double adjustable shocks for only $200 more.
Feel free to call and discuss

The install is equal. Neither G bar or G Link requires any cutting at all. Minor welding is all that is needed. See picture below.
The G Links ship pretty quick now. If you want a ready Fab 9 housing, that may take a few weeks. Or we can provide weld on brackets for your own 9"
When your ready, let me know. We will take care of you.
Cradle halves weld in and everything else bolts in.

Frank,
Is that pic a mini tubbed car, the frame does look narrow behind the bracket but the camera angle is thowing me off. Are the billet lower bars stronger than the ones shown in the pic? And is there a fixture for setting up rear end brackets for welding to a 12bolt, or do you install and tack, then remove and weld? what size weight springs do you normally ship with a 1st gen camaro? Is the rear sway bar a significant upgrade?
Thanks Rich

That is a mini tub car. The strongest and most adjustable kit is the G Link (steel bars). The G Billet is very stong but has limited adjusablitity due to the thinckness of the aluminum arms. Yes we have weld fixtures for the upper link brackets for both 12 bolt and 9" rears. We can send any weight springs you want, 200LBS is a good base weight, but really each car should be discussed to determne the best weight based on car weight and intended purpose. As for the sway bar, the sway bar is adjustable and will help with both drag and handling tuning.
