    Re: 1978 El camino restification UPDATE 5/11/09

    I rebuilt the front suspension and cut the springs when I purchased the car, before the tear down. I decided to go with drop spindles, V8 springs (original V6) and tubular upper control arms.





    I had painted the dontrol arms with cheap rattle can stuff and they looked like crap. I stripped them back down and POR-15ed them.





    Now I can put the front suspension back together!

      Where did you source your Hydroboost from? I need to get one for my Riviera in the near future.

          Thanks,
          I got it on ebay, I don't remember who the seller was though. It supposedly fit a Chev 2500 Diesel, 2006. I had to modify the push rod, to make it work.
