Re: [AMC-List] AMC a 'Joke' - Independent Rear Suspension

[<francis.swygert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Jag is easier to install than the 'vette IRS because of the trailing
arms. You have to use the 'Vette arms as they support the hubs, or some
models need two trailing arms that have to be positioned correctly and
the correct lengths to keep geometry right. The Jag axle just uses a
simple single trailing arm that is best replaced with a tubular four
link type with screw-in 5/8" hole urethane bushed rod ends. Making a
mount for the car body is relatively simple. The advantage of the 'vette
is the transverse leaf spring is a bit easier to install than the four
coil over shocks, or rather takes up less room.

I never got into the IRS end of it, Yet.
It may well be easier to do a Jag rear then the Vette.
On FeeBay right now in ALamaba is the perfect donor car. 1984 Flood
Vette,
Tuned port pulled and replaced with a Quadrabog, gutted missing
interior,
supposedly runs, Salvage Florida title, 16" cenetrlines, good skins, It
was at
like $300 yesterday with two days to go. No reserve. If it goes cheap it
would
be as clos eto a freee suspension as you can find. Alas, It is too far
for me
to try to acquire in my current condition.
