HAS ANYBODY CONVERTED A C BODY TO A FRONT STEER RACK & PINION STEERING?
What does Rack & Pinion Steering have to do with IRS?I'd call Fatman Fabrications to see if he's ever cobbled up a an IRS for a C-body.
It's an entire "slider kit" .What does Rack & Pinion Steering have to do with IRS?
That's a lot of work and $$ to give up my torsion bars... which I love.It's an entire "slider kit" .
Remove old stub frame.
Install a new stub frame fabricated by Fatman.
The Fatman front end consists of a modern Independent Front Suspension with Rack & Pinion steering.
I just don't know if he's ever done a C-body.
He was doing this years before Alterkation started doing them for A-bodies.
I totally agree 101%.That's a lot of work and $$ to give up my torsion bars... which I love.
I can't see a reason to do it unless you are trying to lighten up for race purposes or just want to hang with the cool kids at the F and C shows. Maybe if there was no parts left to fix yours...
I think flipping the spindle side to side won't create much of an issue.
Latest Hot rod garage show has lots of talk of front suspension modifications.
I totally agree 101%.
Yes, why bother.
Rebuilding the front end would be far superior .
Too many people read Hot Rod Magazine.
Way too many. Like in 90% of them.
