69 Camaro request Help with choosing a suspension setup for a daily driver
Hello Everyone,
I have been reading through all of the setups no everyone has, and would like to pick your brains and knowledge on what to do.

I am building a 69 BB camaro cruiser, no racing just driving around town.

currently I am looking at what suspension setup will give me that nice Lowered stance and premium ride quality.

based off of what you have driven in and experienced, can you please recommend for me what front and back suspension setup I should go with to have a nice cruiser.

after I figure out the suspension, I will move onto 4 wheel disc brake setups...
-1969 Camaro
- Big Block
- lowered stance look is what I’m going for
- Stock 12 Bolt Rear End
- Ride quality is a must
- budget is around $5000 or less for suspension setup parts, I will install it all myself

thank you in advance for your knowledge, helping me get it right the first time!

The biggest issue with the first gen is the steering and geometry.

I would take a look at the speed 1 or 2 front kit from DSE and the speed 1 kit for rear plus a good steering box and subframe connectors and solid body mounts.

That should put you around $5K including rebuilding the steering linkage system and maybe adding a bump steer kit for good measure.
