      Custom push rod system?

      Is it capable to be made? I have seen it done on a Mustang, but what else is needed? Heres the link to the Mustang.

      DUDE, STOP POSTING THE SAME DAMN THREAD OVER AND OVER. IF YOU DIDN'T GET THE ANSWER YOU WERE LOOKING FOR THE FIRST TIME, TRY ASKING A DIFFERENT QUESTION IN YOUR ORIGINAL THREAD.

      Are you wanting someone to tell you which suspension to buy for your Nova, or are you trying to figure out what will be the best for your budget?

      Is there any particular reason that you're looking to do this?

      If you're asking if you can cantilever coil overs, yes it's possible.
      You won't find anyone building a bolt in kit. With that in mind you'll need a welder, some tube, a few bushings/bearings, and a ton of math.

      That it is, but it is pretty interesting. Bottom mount watts link and some really tilted coil overs. I imagine the rate on those spring is pretty high. Interesting suspension. JR

      the system in the link is the unique performance copy of the total control products torque arm rear suspension and yes, it is a pushrod system. if you want more info look up TCP.

      The shocks would have to be absurdly stiff too.. Unless it is the pushrod type.
