Chassisworks' second generation g-Bar and g-Link systems represent
the current state-of-the-art in canted-4-bar suspension design. The
g-Bar system consists of three different combinations of upper and
lower link bars with your choice of coil-over shocks or ShockWave®
air springs. These options create six different variations to better
suit your particular performance application. Each can be used with
our vehicle-specific bolt-in FAB9 housing or the vehicles
existing housing.

Adjustable Geometry
Upper and lower suspension link mounting brackets feature multiple
positions to adjust chassis anti-squat and optimize vehicle handling.
Upper links are length adjustable to set pinion angle and suspension
preload if needed. g-Link lower arms are also adjustable for wheelbase
variations and precise housing alignment.
Adjustable Shock Mounts
Billet aluminum double shear lower shock mounts bolt directly
to the back of the lower control arm bracket and provide 4-1/2 inches
of ride height adjustment. The three-position upper shock mount allows
additional ride height adjustment, with the ability to provide increased
stiffness for improved cornering or softer ride without changing springs.
System Options
VariShock coil-overs or ShockWave® air
springs;single- or double-adjustable valving; direct-fit FAB9
housing or bolt-on axle brackets (for use with existing housing);
urethane, pivot-ball, or billet pivot-ball suspension links; splined-end
or sliding-link anti-roll bar.

VariShock
Coil-Overs
A traditional coil-over configuration enables the ability to accurately
corner-balance the vehicle by varying spring preload, and offers predictable
suspension tuning results. A selection of spring rates, ranging from
110 to 350 lb/in., are available to match your vehicle's performance
requirements.
|
ShockWave® Air Suspension
ShockWave® equipped systems offer instant ride-height and ride-quality
adjustment, with the patented ShockWave® air spring, in single-
or double-adjustable versions. When fully deflated, the vehicle rests
5-6 inches below stock ride height and can be raised to driving
height at the push of a button. A RidePro compressor system
(available separately) is required for operation.
|
Sliding-Link Adjustable Anti-Roll Bar
The sliding-link anti-roll bar system features a 5/8-diameter,
solid bar mounted to the same frame adapter brackets as the g-Bar
suspension cradle for a complete bolt-on installation. Our unique
sliding-link mechanism, utilizes three distinct indents at each end
of the anti-roll-bar lever to create six incremental adjustments.
The sliding-link anti-roll bar system can be used on the entire family
of g-Bar suspensions.
|
Splined-End Tubular Anti-Roll Bar
Our splined-end anti-roll bar system features a 3/4-diameter,
bent-tube design, that mounts below the rearend housing. An adjustable,
billet-pivot-socket mechanism threads into the g-Bar lower axle-bracket
sleeve, and allows the bar to rotate smoothly in a play-free joint.
Billet-aluminum arms extend forward, and are connected to the chassis
through links consisting of adjustable-length, 3/8 rod-end assemblies.
The splined-end anti-roll bar system can be used on the entire family
of g-Bar suspensions.
|
Note: Anti-roll-bar mounts are integrated into
the g-Bar brackets system and must be selected at time of g-Bar purchase.

g-Bar Direct-Fit FAB9 Housings
Chassisworks g-Bar FAB9 offers exceptional performance,
reliability, and adjustability in a bolt-on, factory-welded housing,
complete with all suspension brackets. Housings are engineered for
proper clearance using either VariShock coil-overs or ShockWave®
air suspension; with or without a back brace. Anti-roll-bar bracket
options include chassis mounted (sliding-link bar), axle-housing mounted
(splined-end bar), or no anti-roll-bar brackets installed.
Narrowed Housing Widths
Housings can be built to standard widths for OEM wheel offsets or
narrowed to accommodate wider tire and wheel combinations. Widths
can be narrowed in 1/4 increments to the wheel-to-wheel minimum.
