WMS Challenger SRT8 Build - Pedders Track 2 Xa Package - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

(Not a Camaro, but still cool)

Started a Challenger SRT8 Build Today.
This car is getting the Track 2 Xa Package, which includes all 38 Bushings (Yes, I said 38 Bushings!), Xa Coilovers, Pedders Sway Bars, Pedders Adjustable Front Links, Double Ball Rear Links, and a custom alignment by me.

Gotta love the blue tape, just in case!
Here you can see all of the front arms and the knuckle are removed, and the strut is still hanging there for the moment, but that didn't last long after this pic.

Here is the rear cradle dropped out of the car, you can see the tiny sway bar on top, connected with the mushy end links with bushings at each end, these are both replaced with a 22mm Adjustable Rear Bar, and Double Ball End Links that are more efficient.

If you look carefully you can see all 10 of the rear arms, and the Diff in the center.

Here are the arms (Front Upper Arms not in the picture) after sand blasting, painting, and all ready for new Pedders Bushings.

I will post up some more pictures of the build tomorrow once we are finished with the car.

Stay Tuned for more soon!

You are sick and twisted. I am wearing shorts and a t-shirt. We ate lunch outside in the sun. Is the SRT8 finished or did your fingers get too cold?
