Haven't seen the new alterKation. There's always something new. Here's a bad pic of the rear...
That looks like a Viper rear. IRS based of the Dana 60. I didn't think RMS was doing those, but maybe they have moved into them.
Thanks HP2 !! Hadn't seen that. What do you like about it in comparison? Any down sides to the RMS. So.. It's called the "street lynx"? I just saw the RMS and thought it would match up good to the front. What would you suggest for me? Anybody know a price? Thanks all, Robert.
The Street lynx is actually a copy of the GM four link set up like what you find under Chevelles. Four unequal length arms at converging/diverging angles to eliminate the need for a panhard bar. I've seen them in A bodies, but thats it. Personally, I don't care for them at all. If your going that far with a suspension set up, you might as well build adjustability in to it, which it does not appear to have. I will admit I have not looked into them at all, but I would assume they would have the same inherent problems that Chevelles have, ie wheel hop and bind at high power levels.
Three bars are the better set up for handling applications as it allows the rear to articulate better. Drawback is making the third bar long enough to avoid altering the wheelbase too much in travel.
Watts links are better than panhard bars as they also allow a great range of travel without altering wheelbase or moving the track width during movement.
RMS also does the air bar set up, which is made by someone else and sold through RMS. It appears to be decent with a fair amount of adjustability combined with decent geometery and of course, the air bag capability.
