Hey all, names Brad, from California. This may be an odd introduction. I don't have a Viper. I have a 1967 Dodge D100 pickup. I am currently installing 1996 Corvette C4 suspension front and rear. My dilemna.......the stock Vette rear ends are weak. Even the D44 ones are blowing up at 500hp levels behind manual trans. I'm building a 416ci small block Mopar stroker turbo motor backed by a Viper T56. Seeing as all the suspension and rear end mounts are all going to be custom made, I have decided to use a Viper 3rd member and batwing in place of the Vette parts. What year Vipers are "easiest" to find these pieces out of? Any years to stay away from? What are gear ratio options? Does anyone have one out of a car that can measure the distance between the inner u-joints at the output flanges? I suppose if I started all over I would of loved to keep the truck all Dodge using Viper suspension front and rear, by I only paid $800 for all of the Vette suspension, steering, and brakes, I just couldnt pass it up. Thanks in advance for any help or opinions. I will leave you with a rendition of what the projected final product should be, LOL
