Our Independent Front Suspension (IFS) system for your AMC is designed to provide exceptional control, stability, handling, safety and performance, bringing your American muscle car into the new millennium. Designed in-house on the most advanced SolidWorks CAD systems, our AMC IFS systems are eager performers that release unsprung weight while increasing the torsional rigidity of the front end. Lighter, stronger and more precise than the stock suspension, these systems are as much at home on the road as they are on the strip, autocross or road race courses. After installation, servicing your suspension and steering components is much easier. This system is a true bolt-in system, complete from hub to hub. Our front sway bar kits (optional) consists of a 1" solid sway bar. We mate the bar to our custom polygraphite bushings with Teflon lube, coated steel brackets, and a selected set of sway bar end links, all attached with new Grade 8 hardware. Front sway bar kits are designed to work with our AMC independent front suspension (IFS) systems. NOTE: Designed for use with factory exhaust manifolds. Aftermarket exhaust headers will require modification (welding & fabrication) to fit this system or you'll need to make a separate purchase of American Racing Headers designed for use with this IFS system (not included and sold separately). This system requires Wilwood pro spindle front disc brakes (sold separately)
