Chris Alston’s Chassisworks features a website that helps from beginning to end of your project car’s suspension upgrade.

When it comes to making fabrication easier on a musclecar, Chris Alston’s Chassisworks has you covered from beginning to end. From the planning and selection of the project to the final installation, the crew at Chassisworks have put together a very comprehensive approach to project-car fabrication. We are all aware of their in-depth product instructions from the many installations that have been performed under our roof, but Chassisworks’ involvement begins much earlier, and in a different format. The Chassisworks’ web page is a tremendous starting place for anyone considering upgrading a vintage musclecar’s suspension.

The system guide selection is a pull down menu from the top bar on the opening page.

In the menu-driven opening page of the Chris Alston’s Chassisworks website is a powerful but seldom used pull-down menu button titled “System Guides.” A quick click on this button takes you to another screen that displays six different systems, with guides to the components. In this case we chose to view the system guides for Chassisworks and clicked on that logo, which took us to another page that displayed Chassisworks’ system guides.

Chassisworks offers system guides for every subsystem offered by the company.

The Chassisworks’ systems-guides are broken into simple categories; Universal Product Systems, GM Product Systems, and Ford Product Systems. Obviously we were motivated by the GM Product section that featured several systems for the 1st and 2nd generation Camaro. Clicking on any of the systems pictured on the page will take you to yet another page with a full breakdown and description of all options available.

The final system-guide navigation screen allows you to see the full systems, where you can select which one you want to see detailed information about.

The 1970-1981 Frame system guide for example, is full of information on every component that directly attaches to the frame. The guide breaks down the system into several subsystems, with accurate descriptions that help narrow down the choices of components like spindle selection, bump steer kit, and shock selection. Chris Alston’s Chassisworks’ web site is more than an online store – it’s a complete encyclopedia of suspension references.
