Default suspension question

i dont have a camaro...have a camaro clip in my truck..just bought it and going to start rebuilding the chassis and was wondering if there is a way to tell what year camaro the clip came from..markings..numbers..??..
just figured asking camaro people would probably be the best option...any help would be great

Might be able to assist if you can take a few pictures of the subframe, and brakes. Also a measurement hub to hub face on the subframe would give a hint as to what year it came from.

Early ones are slightly shorter than later ones. The extra length is the front due to the rubber nose.

You have to get your post count over ten. That is there to keep smappers at bay. Then get a photobucket account and upload to that site then post the direct link. Use the little icon withthe mountain.
