Yes sir, no issue with welding it in. I made it bolt in for the ease.

fair enough. I didnt have a mic for all of the shots in this video. There was a bunch of back ground noise i was trying to dull in the edit. Ill see if I can fix it and re-upload it. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

Drew makes some cool stuff for sure. I currently have an ibex chassis car. Has leading and trailing arms a big block chevy with a 91mm turbo, bypasses and all the rest.

@@funkhouserracecars nice! I posted that comment before I realized you're doing an independent front suspension. Not sure if the ibex comes with an IFS option? The one you're doing here looks strong as hell!

​@@jeffallen3382no worries! to my knowledge, no ifs options from GB. But maybe hes workin on it...never know. Ive done 4 solid axle cars now, this was the natural progression for me. I love building stuff!! and learning everything i can on the way

me too!!!

Im working on it right now. I can only move the spring in a tiny bit at the front without massive overhaul. I already build a 1.75" offset slider for the back that helps to make that additional tire clearance for the back of the spring.

@@funkhouserracecars thank you for your reply.

Yes sir! I have the 99-06 single cab cage. The obs we are doing is a 3/4 chassis deal, so the cage info I have doesn't include the factory floor. I should have gotten the info beforehand. Im working on a complete rear suspension kit for the obs as well. I saved the back section of the frame so I could design the parts.

thanks buddy!

Would square tubing be better for the frame connectors vs the tube connectors?

@@riggedandjimmiedgarage7268 Good evening...I would say either will work just fine. I like round tube for weight savings and general ascetics. If square is easier for you, that would be fine in my view. The goal of the frame connector is to transfer the force from the tire through the spring into the box.

@@funkhouserracecars id agree with the round tube and weight savings. I think the connectors need to be welded to the floor on these cars as mine is very flimsy and i couldn't really tell a difference with the frame connectors bolted on in place.

I 100% agree. I shot each style plate- meaning shock location with each variation of options. Im going to post each one in the links on my website and edit them all together as well for supplemental information. I found as I made this video I wanted to add even more info to what I had presented...but I was at 20 mins already. Each video I hope to make better than the last...and add good information as well. Thanks for the comment, I appreciate you taking the time to write it.

@@funkhouserracecars and I'm glad you agree because I want to put together a leaf spring car and I want to be one of them guys that sets a record so the more I can learn the better for me and who's ever parts I use, keep up the good work......

more to come buddy!

@@funkhouserracecars i feel like the NBS is a huge market

yes sir...the install looks the same for a 2nd gen as well

@@funkhouserracecars website please?

Sadly somebody in China will buy this kit and you will see one on ebay looking nearly exactly like it before long, glad we still have quality suppliers still around the states though. Hell most of Holleys stuff is off shore made now

hey buddy, i make a 2nd gen camaro setup. its a little different from these, and require a little bit of welding. funkhouserracecars.com

@@funkhouserracecars Thanks for the reply will check them out.

thank you sir!

can you clarify how you hang them from rod ends?? Are you using the ball as the bearing? Im totally interested if you get a chance. Thanks !

@@funkhouserracecars I’ll find a pic! Or I’ll be back in front of the cars next week at Watkins Glen. It’s so simple and light. Yes! The ball in the heim becomes the bearing.

thank you sir!!!

Ive been working on making the changes to the website, slow but it will happen. I have 62-65 post/non-post, and I have 66-67 non-post available.

He copy/pasted the quotation marks in his spam comment! 🤣🤣🤣

eventually yes...the tack welded stock suspesion unit is on there. i need to split it up to have some addrional options

Yes I can...there are some limitations and some stuff we would have to sort out ahead of time...but Ive done several projects like this. Feel free to email me- matt@funkhouserracecars.com

When will these be available?

they are available now​@@CaptainChaos131

thanks buddy!!! Im finally gonna run them badass v-band turbine housing units you built for me about 2 years ago. I got a 63 hardtop car with some cool new leaf spring ideas I came up with...can't wait to make some content on that car!

@@funkhouserracecars Cant wait!

$295 for everything plus shipping.

@@funkhouserracecars not bad at all

@@jwfabworks3141 I try to keep prices reasonable without any compromise in quality. Building everything in house helps a bunch with that being able to do it.

thanks man!!

Thanks buddy! CNC parts aren't always the cheapest things you can get...thats for sure. They have a time and place.

what kind of custom? What are you looking for?

@@funkhouserracecars I’m looking to build a rear engine single seat street legal cross kart the frame is the part I have no experience in welding, is not my strong suit

Like I want to do a dash doors windows ac heat radio even carpet I’m expecting to work on this project for about the next five years

@@kanibullykennels6043 we pretty much build about anything...something like that is hard to cost out. you can always contact me at matt@funkhouserracecars.com if you have more questions

thanks as always Rod!

awesome man! thank you for the support!!

San Diego, California

thanks brotha!!

yeahh buddy! It still has stock front suspension for class reasons.

@@funkhouserracecars can we get a video on it?

Let me check, we did a Falcon a year ago. Email matt@funkhouserracecars.com and Ill check to see to what year Falcon we have in drawn. It started as an 850 cert, then we added the 25.3 stuff to it before it left.

Thanks buddy! It started off with a th400 GV combo...but stick shift stuff is so much fun! So...here we go!

yes sir. I'll be doing a video on those as well soon

it is really nice stuff!

thanks buddy!!

nice! it's an uncommon last name for sure

LOL!!

@@funkhouserracecars And that is an amazing specimen.
