Hello. My project has gone waaaaaaaay long on completion. I have installed the following items: Koni shocks, Energy poly complete front sub frame and control arm kit, Moog upper and lower ball joints, Moog offset cross shafts, and Hotchkis front and rear springs. What I want is someone to make sure the frame is lined up correctly and that all of my suspension items are set up at the proper ride height, then tightened. At this time, I also want my sub frame connectors to be welded in. I only want to haul my car one time, to one shop, to competently complete this job. Any ideas? BTW, I guess I need to tell you the car is a 1970 Camaro. Thanks.
Kevin

Put some tubular upper arms on it, you need them in order to get +5 degrees caster. Without the arms you won't get much, maybe +3 deg.

Sorry I can't help with a shop recomendation.

Well, this might sound funny, but I am finished with this car after it is complete the way it is now. I have collected many parts and installed them. I am going to buy and old (70 or 71) Fury Sport or Chrysler 300 (70) and make a power tour car from it. I can only imagine how funny that sounds to most people. Truth is, the Camaro has pretty much all the parts it needs to be respected right now. I don't want to spend myself upside down on this project. Right now, I am just right...
