Griggs stuff is good quality stuff. Not Granatelli junk. Do you have the SLA front end they offer? You can tell because it's the same set up the GM F body runs. Its about $4000 from Griggs just for that.

What year and model is it? For a full Griggs setup I'm guessing it's solid axle with a torque arm/panhard bar setup or a torque arm/watts link setup. They also make their world class control arms that attach right where you torque boxes are or the standard OEM style ones which is what most have.

Look at your interior and if you see bumps in the carpet that is the Griggs extreme subframe connecters. They are cut into the floor and also have another connector welded on the underside of the car like your conventional subframe connectors.
I didn't think anyone around here had a heavily modified suspension in their car other than me. I have all Maximum Motorsports stuff though. One thing I would do, if it hasn't been done by the previous owner, get the car corner weighted, aligned and make sure the ride height is even. Best place for that is Fast Track Service in Peabody.

I have the printout from griggs i believe its their full autox suspension front and rear, it has the subframes that you can see inside. I will be around on Sunday probably if anyone is free and wants to meet up at Marina bay in quincy let me know, the car isn't registered in Mass yet so i can't drive it anywhere, working on that today hopefully.

thanks guys!

I work in Quincy. But at the end of the day I get the hell out of there haha. Congrats on your new car.

I've also been seeing a zinc yellow cobra driving around Quincy. West side near home depot on Willard st. It seems to be his daily driver or he just likes driving it in the snow.

Black rear panel? Think he lives on furnace brook. See it there all the time
