Other than the obvious...

Spring, shock/strut, and sway bar differences, are there any other differences between TII suspension and N/A and 'vert suspensions?


And yes, I searched.

The vert front subframe is also different, I think there are a couple of bushings as well, but I don't have my parts manual in front of me.

And you need to fix your signature. 6 lines max including images no bigger than 6 lines.

You signature is around three times the allowable amount.

If the vert front subframe is different, will that affect my LS1 plans?

I know people have done LS1's in verts, but I am not sure if they had to use coupe subframes or what. You would probably want to check with the Other engine conversions section

I've seen people use the vert subframe, but I believe they remove that brace that goes accross the rear of the engine/tranny area, at least I think that's where it was located.

What about the actual suspension pieces themselves? Are any of the control arms thicker, bushings different, etc? I hear people talk about "upgrading to TII suspension", are they only talking about the obvious stuff I mentioned above?
