This is hands down one of the best Ride tech installs on a Tri 5 Ive found, Im watching it for the 2nd time)), you guys are fun to watch and Im shocked why you havnt got more subscribers, so more power to you and hope you get tons more Subs! Im considering the same Ride Tech kit to install on my 57 Hardtop which Im currently starting on my channel, and from what your saying it seems well worth it. Great video, keep them coming guys !
Thank you so much for this! We are so glad you found some use in our projects, we make these in hopes that it helps inspire someone or at the very least give them some guidance in making their project car even better. So thank you very much for taking the time to watch and leave this awesome comment!
@@scottmartinetti4875 Choptank area. My fathers cousin used to live down the neck, make a right at the VFD and head to the waterfront. Long lots from the road to the shore but not very wide. It was back when you could take a boat out in the waters there and dip a bushel of crabs. Gone is that ability. I hope not but the prices must be reflecting supply.
@@4speed3pedals I know what you're talking about I've worked down that road before it's kind of passed the garden of Eden road. Yeah there's a bunch of smaller vacation homes back there really cool small area.
Thanks for the comment! WE have installed both bags and coilover from ridetech. The Coilovers are defenitley a better overall ride qulaity. But the benefit of the bags is that you can adjust the comfort and the responsivness with a touch of a button. With the coilovers you have to put the car on a lift and change the position of things.
Hey guys I have a 55 and I'm getting ready to put a ridetech system on it. Do you think shockwaves would be a better buy for quick adjustments on the go rather than the coilover?
Shockwaves are definitely an easier and quicker adjustment on the fly. If you don’t have the ability or the care to get under the car with an Allen wrench and a spanner wrench every time you wanna adjust the ride height, then shockwaves may be better. But the coil over has a dial, (+-) on each coilover to adjust the stiffness of each shock pretty easily with no tools. But if you need to do ride height adjustments it requires tools. These adjustments are really big changes, and may be just enough for what you are looking for.
Do you like this set up better than the street grip package? Im not hitting the race track but want a smooth ride for sure. What kind of tires are you rolling on? I have a 57chevy bel air 2dr hardtop sitting on 20x8.5 rear and 18x8 front
This kit is far superior to the street grip, and the ability to customize the ride quality and ride height really is the benefit here. The street grip is really a great kit for the money but is really static and you have one drivability setting, which is way better than factory but not customizable or tunable.
ordered and being installed July 1st by sampson performance here in New Braunfels TX. If I hadn't seen your video I would have left it alone and drove it like it is, which feels like im constantly rolling down a rocky road lol. THANK YOU VERY MUCH

Beautiful! Sweet kit and the motor sounds nasty. Bags vs coil overs?

Love the stance guys. What size front and back wheel and tire combo?
I would also be interested in the wheel and tire combo package info. Size, offset, ect... of both wheel and tires
As would I they look to be the American racing torq thrust 11 or torq thrust d. But would Alice to know the tire size ?
What part of Delaware are you guys in

What steering tie rods and sleeves did you put on? I see they were different after the suspension install.
Hey rob, they were from Ridetech also. Give a cool look and updated from factory.
