Hey guys I'm trying to set up the suspension on my 72 nova pro street it's a Gm12 bolt with ladder bars and coil overs...just confused about a few things first is that with the drive shaft where the rear is set up now the drive shaft doesn't have a lot of up and down room for suspension travel maybe about an inch and a half how much should I have ? so what I did was change the holes on the coil over bracket
Second is that with the suspension fully relaxed the panhard bar pulls the rear end over to the passenger side is that normal? If not how can I fix it is there a better system to center the rear axle? Thanks in advance gys

I've tubbed close to I believe 15 cars in my shop,usually on a Nova,or Camaro,the tunnel is cut out and floor replaced up to about where the rear seat use to begin,if you are trying to keep the back seat,and do a full tub,you"ll have tunnel problems,only other choice is raise the car up higher.
