Ride Comfort of Ridetech Coilovers

[MCB Matt]

I just purchased some ridetech upper & lower A-arms, HQ coil overs and ridetech spindles from Matt's Classic Bowties for my '69 442. After reading this and many other threads I feel comfortable in my decision that RideTech has it figured out. I look forward to getting them installed

Thank you very much for your order, you will be very happy with your kit, its will ride and handle sooooo much better!

Couple quick question about the ridetech complete front suspension set up. I have a 72 Nova that I want to put this system on and wanted to know about the new camber and caster angles it has compared to stock. The reason for this is that I wanted to know if I should also G-mod or buy a DSE coil-over conversion to pair with the ridetech system. Would the DSE coil-over conversion even work with RideTech or is it specific to their A-arms and coil-over set up? I just ordered Mark Savitske's book, hopefully it will help me understand more, I'm new to the pro-touring world so any real world input or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

With the caster adjustable cross shaft you can get 7+ degrees caster (depending on subframe condition).
Depending on number of shims you can get all the camber you need.

No need for the G-mod. . .it's already built-in by use of a tall spindle.

Our kit comes with coil overs sized for our arms. . .so no need for the DSE coil conversion kit.

To the OP, as for ridetech ride quality, you wont find a better handling or riding setup in my opinion. The fact is Bret surrounds himself with great people and most of them will build on what they bring to the plate.
Quality is bar none the best from any company.

I now Bret personally,and as for who he is and what his company is doing, well he has proven himself time and again to many of us as for you SLO you just keep showing your ignorance.
I am no one but a humble hot rodder, while I am a Certified Master Technician AND I used their parts to build a bolt on air ride setup on a 78 C10 3 yrs before they did, my only welding was the brackets on the rear axle and rear shock cross bar.
SLO Z28,

You sir have opened your mouth several times, made grandiose statements, blanket judgments and thrown out so many pieces of BS. You also have been called out on such.
As one said you think your S__T DONT STINK. Sorry never seen anyone who didnt have a great big stinky pile coming out that orifice. You could swallow some gold leaf capsules and make it pretty but it will still stink.
But then you ALSO let that stink come out of your mouth.
Hope it tastes good cause you just showed how infantile you can be.
Sometimes I have seen you actually provide good info, talk normal, not be the ass you just shown your self to be.

As for their coil overs, well after talking to a random customer at my shop while working on his daily driver he wanted good shocks and had bought 3 sets of other brands,,,including the overly expensive "P" brand. to no avail and was at his lowest on his project.
Gave him Ridetechs number, a week later his project was operating and in his words ",,,at 100% right out of the box!"
