Corvair Forum

i would do it to strengthen the rear end because ive blown them up, i have a few friends runing welded differentials in their daily drivers, but their front engined rear wheel drive cars, i was wondering how a corvair would drive with a completely locked rear end

is this car on ebay?

should practically blow snow out of the vents

i have done about 400 miles of driving this weekend in the convertible, and it hasnt missed a beat, drove to saginaw, then bay city then back to saginaw, then home, then i drove to grand rapids and back, its been pretty fun!

you can put it in my vert if you want, i wont mind

really cool pic! theres alot of places like that in the upper peninsula of michigan!

I have heard you can use spindles from a GM G body from the mid eighties on a corvair front suspension for a disc brake conversion, i know you have to do some modification to the spindle to get it to work, i was wondering if anybody has done this and could let me know all the ins and outs
