    I have been utilizing the search feature with good information but not pertaining to what I'm seeking.

    Here is what I have:
    1954 Chevy 2 door 210 ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1457392817.507682.jpg ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1457392938.850911.jpg

    I am slapping on a 1968 Chevy Nova's rear end (8.2 10 bolt)

    I am not going to bag it. No Airbags at all.

    I am looking for a 4 link kit w/ coilovers that will lower the body without cutting out C Notches on the chassis. I DO NOT want to cut out the floor boards or trunk area. Ive tried looking for direction and cannot find results. Could anyone help or point me in the right direction?

  3. I looked at that 4 link too. It will work but I didn't like the Idea of welding the four link onto the top hat style frame. What I ended up with was the Chassis Engineering rear spring kit for 49 to 54 Chevy's. It lowered it about 2 inches from stock and I'll be putting 2 inch blocks on it shortly after I get the front down a little more. It rides like a caddilac and your rear from a 68 nova is a bolt in for the kit. I'd look into that kit, the single best thing I've done to my 51. Here is how it sits now.
