Very helpful

[@cliffmcintyre3817]

I would like to have seen that my self thanks for the info

Thanks Gary.

Really like your video lots of technical information. Would have like to seen the trailing arm bushing replacement as well as the rear sway bar hardware replacement (Big Block). A suggestion - while the text on the video was very helpful reinforcement, if you used a more contrasting color (red?) it would be easier to read. Thanks

Nice video but would have liked to see you show how you replaced trailing arm bushings!

[@hmdwn]

Great video's...I would let you work on my Vette, no problem

Hello, thanks for sharing, do you by chance know the size of the plug for the brake line. I noticed in the first part you plugged the line with a fitting but I do not know the size. I have done brake calipers before and normally a lot of oil is wasted.

I replaced my factory trailing arms 3 years ago with Global West TBC-9 trailing arms. These trailing arms have the Heim style joint where they attach to the frame. Recently, I had to disconnect the trailing arms at the half shafts and when I reassembled, found that I had to apply considerable force inboard to the trailing arms using ratcheting tarp straps in order to get them close enough to the half shafts to put the bolts in. Global West has advised that this should not happen if the spring and the strut rods are not attached, which they weren't. Have you ever run into this problem? Any advice as to why this happened? Could shim placement have anything to do with it?

You mentioned using dental floss to pull the bolt through, but didn't show it. Do you just fish the floss through all the parts and hope it pulls through without breaking?

[@adalmadera25]

Look at part one, this is part two.

The alignment shops do what to do Corvette rear , ggg

[@adriver3528]

Bending the tab and pounding it back down to get the handbrake cable fitted is wrong

[@dannyred5710]

What about torque values?

[@DavidRomero-lg6nq]

that's a good job thanks for the information now maybe I could do my Stingray

[@CatRacer1A2A]

You completely skipped the most difficult part of this job; fishing the bolt back through... what gives?
