Hi Jase,

The Classic Revival uses rear IRS components from the Ford Falcon AU XR8. The front arms and hubs are Jaguar XJ6. The chassis has mounts for coil overs and you have to modify the suspension arms to hook them up.

I've also modified my rear end setup to take the diff center and axles from a VU GTS300 Commodore. Not really nescesary but I wanted a different ratio and I wanted a Hydratrak LSD.

Most of the suspension parts can be found at auto parts dismantlers these days or you can by a complete rear end new from Ford.

You can pick up a brand new crate motor LS1 for just under AU$7K I've seen them sell second hand at wreckers with a transmission and loom for close to this also.

Cheers
