Re: No Limit Trailing Arm Rear Suspension
I am half away done with installing everything. Finishing up the upper shock mount brackets and started on the panhard bar bracket. Man removing rivets are fun.
From the parts list I notice that the Upper Shock Mount Bracket and Panhard bar Bracket don't come with mounting hardware. Has anyone else ran into this? I seems like I am 11 bolts short. |

Re: No Limit Trailing Arm Rear Suspension
I too noticed the reference hole issue. I used the bottom right hole instead of the middle one for reference. I believe I purchased the first trailing arm kit that they sold. I too was short on bolts, just ran to local store and grabbed more. Ill post pictures tomorrow absolutely love the product and everything they have. They will be will be my go to for any and all future projects. You will not find a better company to work with customer service wise not to mention their top quality products.
Also CPP C-notch kit works well with the trailing arm kit as seen on the yellow test truck. |

Re: No Limit Trailing Arm Rear Suspension
Sorry guys. We missed the bolt count for the shock and panhard mounts. This has been amended, but if you need them, just call and we'll ship them out. Also, it would seem that some frames have different holes in the back. We will be posting up a measurement in the directions (see 'Tech Center' on our site) and adding this to the instructions. Thanks for the feedback, everyone is having great results with this package. Ride quality and handling is un-matched. The small details will be sorted out. Thanks again.

Re: No Limit Trailing Arm Rear Suspension
I am stuck at mounting the panhard bar bracket also. I have 2 frames a 71 and 72 neither have the mentioned holes. I will finish mounting it up when dimensions are available. I have plenty of other work to do

Re: No Limit Trailing Arm Rear Suspension
I am running the wide ride ifs with 17x10.5 CCW classic 3pc. The rear will be 18x as big as I can fit. Ill have a build posted once I have time. I went to take pictures today to post and them when noticed I cracked one of the coil over eyelets. I didn't tighten the trailing arm to the rear diff, I guess the weight cracked it. No worries Rob is helping me out in replacing it. Next item will be the rear sway bar from No Limit.

Here is where I have it mocked up. It cant go much more forward without hitting the bolt for the cross member. Also is there a L/R for the trailing arm brackets? Thanks |

Re: No Limit Trailing Arm Rear Suspension
Lookin good. There is no difference between L.H. & R.H. mounts for the trailing arms. Panhard mount spec is now online. Thanks.

Re: No Limit Trailing Arm Rear Suspension
Sory for the delay. Here is a spec on the mount location of the panhard rod bracket for chassis that don't have the pic location hole.

Re: No Limit Trailing Arm Rear Suspension
Why not just any other notch? Isn't the panhard specifically designed to work with the CPP notch?

Re: No Limit Trailing Arm Rear Suspension
Looks great! We are now stress testing a few versions of a notch brace. I know that no one else has done this, as we are testing a few others as well. Load stress of mod rails vs. OE rail. Twist, vert. and horiz. loads. Probably 30 days to production unit.

Re: No Limit Trailing Arm Rear Suspension
You're going to give us the raw data on that, right?

So there is about a $350 difference between this setup and the fatbar when they are both using Ridetech shocks. What are the advantages of going with this vs your fatbar setup?

Re: No Limit Trailing Arm Rear Suspension

The Fatbar was originally designed for 55-59 Chevs and 53-56 F100s. (sorry for the F word) And, over the years, we tuned on the design to get the best ride and handling we could from a classic truck. It's advantage when compared to the O.E. trailing arm was in Instant Center location/tuning, and the lack of binding during articulation. (we didn't have Monster balls back then) But remember, the Fatbar has parts that MUST be welded to the axle housing. Thus, the install takes a little longer, and requires more tools and skill. In head to head competition, the Fatbar may win out due to it's ability to launch and exit the corner. On the road, the trailing arm may be a little more compliant due to it's longer travel. As for cost, an increase in hardware offsets some addition labor to install. Take your pick, it's a Win-Win.
