68 Charger Hellcat restomod suspension

[mainlymuscle]

Hello ,I am a Collector,builder,racer and general enthusiast from Edmonton ,Canada.I am sort of non-denominational in my passion,as I have about a dozen different brands from 1/2 dozen countries.Current Mopars include 64 Sport Fury 565 Hemi stroker 4 speed,70 FM3 pink Cuda,64 Dodge 440,sister cars Rambler Scramblers,AMX's,Jeeps,and arrogant cousin Jensen Interceptors.Current passion is the 68 Charger build.I just picked up a 2018 Hellcat package with a 6 speed manual so any advice or help on that part will be appreciated.My problem,and this applies to many of my cars,is the suspension .I have absolutely no desire for an autocross/roadrace type car.I have sportscars for that.For me it's all about THE RIDE !!
I will drive it a lot, so the Charger needs to stop and corner safely,but I don't want a harsh ride.I have used Art Morrison stuff ,and the product is excellent,but the ride is far too firm for my taste.I am looking at the front end (and probably rear,as well ) from Gerst Tubular.Does anyone have experience with their products,or any other advise so as give me a comfortable,and safe cruiser ?
Thank you ,I look forward to the discussion.

Anything from Morrison is top notch if you’re going that route. As far as being too stiff, that should be able to be sorted out with shock adjustments. I have the rms suspension in my build and from the limited drive time I have so far Im going to wind up the shocks a bit stiffer. I haven’t had any experience with the other bolt in mopar kits. My vote would be a Morrison chassis if price was no issue. RMS is basically as bolt in as it gets. Lots of room for the hemi swap and lots of parts available.

Friend of mine has used Gerst on 2 b bodies and really liked it. I've used Reilly Motorsports front and back which also a great product , Bill is great to deal with same as Carl Gerst from what I've heard...

I have an AlterKtion and 4 link in my 70 GTX. It has a 5.7 /Nag1 8 3/4 drive train. Also has all 4 discs from an 07 charger. 17" wheels all around. BFG Sport Comp tires. Car weighs 3600 lbs with about a 53/47 front to rear weight distribution.That suspension has been awesome! i have put 15000 miles on it since done in '15. I have had it twice on a 2 1/2 mile road course and loved that! 13.7 1/4 mile time and I have never done that . I don't think you would go wrong with this set up on a '68 Charger. Here is a link to my build thread on this site. There is some discussion and pics of the install
