Stage 2 Handling kit: Rear Install | G-Body Build Series | S1E3

Join Dustin and Ramey in the UMI Race shop as they transform an old 1978 Cutlass into a weekend warrior with cruising capabilities. In this series they swap the old, worn out, factory suspension with a UMI Performance Stage 2 Handling kit. The UMI Stage 2 handling kit is the - bolt-on and go - way to improve handling and performance. It gives your classic car a modern feel.

In this episode, Dustin finally installs the shiny new rear suspension upgrades from the UMI Performance Stage 2 Handling Kit. This includes the tubular rear lower and upper control arms, as well as the frame brace reinforcements to tie them together. The rear end was also prepped with new polyurethane housing bushings for the upper control arms to be mounted on. After mounting the rear end, Dustin installs the UMI 2” rear lowering springs on the Cutlass to lower it and enhance the ride quality. Finally, he uses the jack to load the suspension and tightens all the parts in place.
