New to the site, would like to read some comments from some people who have " been there done that." I have a 69 camaro with an ls2. When building it I kept it simple in the rear end, 12 bolt, drop springs and QA1 shocks. Know that it has been on the road, I would like to take the rear end to the next level. I do not want to tub it and I would like to keep the 12 bolt, its pretty nice. I have spoken to DSE, AMS, and Chris Alliston about their products. Any suggestions????
What do you mean "you want to go to the Next Level"? Leafs springs are very good when done right, if you want a multi link rearend look into Ride Tech also, if you stick with the leafs go Hotchkis

Since you asked for "been there, done that", I have an AMS four link in my '69 that I'm quite happy with... very planted and predictable.

Welcome to the site! I like to ask a few questions before I make any suggestions to determine the best possible bang for the buck.
I think many guys spend more than they need or will use. I pride myself in asking as many questions as possible before making a decision on what is best for the customers hard earned money.
First question is what do you have for goals for the car once it is done? Is it going to be a factory restoration, daily driver/weekend cruiser, weekend warrior/drag car, Pro-Touring/handling machine, etc.
Second question is do you need and/or plan to improve the braking & steering systems to compliment any suspension upgrades?
Third question is do you have a specific budget in mind?
Lastly, do you plan to do the work yourself?
Here is a teaser of our bolt-on kit for your car!
