Hi all. I'm currently building chassis from scratch. I am using c5 control arms/spindles for the front and rear. Suspension Analyzer has been absolutely amazing for figuring out mounting points. The problem is the trial version only has the front. Does anyone have the full version or maybe an older version that has the rear? Here (http://i.imgur.com/kM2RkpL.jpg) are the front specs I've been using and an example of what I'm after for the rear.

Thanks TONS.

FYI, I have heard the analyzer has the wrong pickup points. Do a search on here, there have been a few posts.

Thanks man. That thread (https://www.pro-touring.com/showthread.php?81539-C5-front-suspension-swap-questions) is actually how I found this forum through google. It's the best information I've found online regarding the c5 front, can't seem to find anything anywhere about the rear.

So I was just looking through an Excel file I had for the front and realized there was another page for the rear. :smoke:

I have the rear half of a C6 Z06 frame and suspension for my 69 project.
I don't have any dimensions yet, I need to set it up in my garage and build a jig soon so I can get some in a few weeks.

Hey beaner, just checking but those numbers (points) are the correct ones for the c5 front and rear suspension? Ive done so much reading on how ones were wrong while other were right. I just wanted to track down and make sure that yours were correct. thanks kyle

Also, i cant seem to find the post (not sure if it was even this site) but people were talking about GM releasing the numbers for the c5/c6 suspension with a drawing. Anyone ever find that drawing with the relating points? Im guess they are the same at what these calulators have but just wondering. thanks kyle
