this just proves to me when i get this done to my 62 i will just pay someone else to do it
I've priced it in my area, (nc), its $5000.. couldn't afford that so I'm doing my own.
@@dimitricrozier6426 well at least you can do it i lost my house in a flood and had to sell mine to build a new house. BOO HOO
@@MadsWorld34 sorry to hear this man
Do temporary supports need to be put into place to keep the lower half from sagging or twisting when cutting the frame?
How wide should the frame rail after you've welded the closeouts in?
Is this a build kits for a nova mini tube kit? Will it effect 4 point ladder that are being installed latter?
Would you happen to have a installation video of adding this kit to my 64 Nova Wagon? Im wanting to retain the rear seat. I Know it will need to be narrowed. Please help.
Thank you for doing this video. I actually liked the music. How big of a tire should I be able to fit in there after this modification?Is cutting up the frame rail really necessary? I don't remember Chip Foose cutting up the frame rail on Overhaulin. Are there shops out there that will do the modification for a reasonable price?
James, for Mini-Tubs, cutting the framerail is absolutely necessary to fit a larger tire. Please contact our sales and technical associates at 704-662-3272 or sales@detroitspeed.com for more information.
i dont mean to be so offtopic but does someone know a way to log back into an instagram account??
I was dumb forgot the password. I appreciate any tips you can give me.
@Kylo Kingsley Instablaster :)
@Dangelo Terrance i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Dangelo Terrance DAMN IT ACTUALLY WORKED! Literally hacked my instagram account after ~ 40 mins of using the site.
I had to pay 15$ but definitely worth the price =)
Thanks so much you saved my ass!
How long did the process to install the new inner wells take. I am looking at buying this kit and having a shop install them so time based on price would be nice to know ahead of time. Thanks
The entire mini-tub installation process should be around 40-50hrs depending upon installer skill level and experience.
@@detroitspeed is that 40-50 hours start at the point of the video or is that with disassembly of the vehicle gas tank and all the other parts missing
Need yo have a video on installing your sub frame connectors in a 77 f body
That video we have is a little old, we will have to update it!
I already have the heidts suspension kit for the rear of my convertible but was planning on using your tubs. Is your tubs compatible with this kit and also is this the same steps and process for a convertible. I do know I have to do some more cutting to the inside of the car where the convertible top springs mount but is this pretty much the same steps. Thanks
Please contact our sales & technical associates at 704-662-3272 or sales@detroitspeed.com for all product information. Thank you.
Will this kit work on a 1962 Chevy II convertible?
What rear suspension did you use since now leaf springs can't be used and the frame is cut ?
Ed, this car now utilizes our QUADRALink rear suspension kit. You can view it below...

Sweet do you have any video of install like you have on mini tub....I already installed your mini tub kit but want to maximize the space it gave me so the leaf springs are at scrap yard now need to install rear end
disregard i just opened link and see the video attached
Do you have a video on replacing the entire tail light panel?
So if I go with the mini tubs I can't use my stock leaf springs??
I ordered the number you used at the first of the video and jegs sent me a set of Detorit mini tubs for a 1967-1969 Chevy camaro /firebird. Why?
Anthony, if Summit has provided you with the wrong tubs, you will need to contact their customer service department. The part number for Chevy II Mini-Tubs is 040404
How would it cost to have this done
dont the wider tire hit the frame up front where you did not remove the frame i would think that you should have gone forward another 6/8 inches
So what size can you fit back there with this kit and nothing else?
It depends on what year specifically but if you just do the mini-tubs and nothing else, the leaf springs are still in the same location so you will really not gain much room for anything wider than a stock tire size with a stock tub. Essentially, you would do all of the fab work to maybe gain a 1/2” of clearance (my guess). The leaf springs and/or shocks would also need to be offset inboard or you'd have to go with our QUADRALink™ Kit.
Tci states with a mini tub and their 4 link kit 305mm 62-65 and up to a 315mm 66-67
It didn’t show putting the shock tower back on does it go back?
When installing the Detroit Speed QUADRALink with this kit, the shock tower is no longer used.
Was going to try it until I saw that part of the frame was getting cut out. Going that far I may just cut my car apart and sell the wheel wells and trunk floor to pay for the back half and ladder bar setup
Keith,
Unless you are building a mild drag only car, it would be a lot to go to all that trouble and back half a car with a ladder bar and ever want to drive it on the street. With the Mini-tubs and QUADRAlink™ you can have the best of both worlds with a wide tire in the back. If you have any intention of driving on the street, you do not want ladder bars.
Music is from darthvader back to the future.
I looks good nut should have went full penetration on some frame welding
All that watching and no finish....
Please stop the annoying music.
Theirs no way it should take this much work just to mini tub it, smh
This is how it needs to be done correctly.
You guys missed so many steps in the directions and in this video 🤦🏻♂️
I don’t own a camaro I have a chevy||
Seems like all the Detroit speed videos have annoying background music. Why? For all the twelve year olds with short attention spans, that might get bored and stop watching without it?
