Ridetech, a leader in air and coil-over suspension systems for more than 30 years, proudly announces the launch of its MOMENTUM chassis kits. This all-new platform gives classic muscle car enthusiasts a clean-slate foundation for their next project—delivering modern handling, increased performance, and design flexibility beyond the limits of factory frames. Builders can now enjoy the benefits of a fully engineered chassis while tailoring the suspension to their preferred style of driving, whether that's comfortable street cruising, high-performance autocross, or full track use.

Builders can now enjoy the benefits of a fully engineered chassis while tailoring the suspension to their preferred style of driving, whether that's comfortable street cruising, high-performance autocross, or full track use.
Key engineering highlights include:
* RideTech's MOMENTUM Chassis Series is a new platform for classic muscle cars, offering modern handling, optimized suspension, and modular options, initially for 1968-1972 models
* Optimized suspension geometry—the chassis re-engineers pickup points to improve camber gain, caster, roll center, and Ackermann steering geometry
* Enhanced stability—the chassis is significantly stiffer than a stock frame, which reduces flex and increases structural rigidity for more predictable handling
* Improved cornering—a new integrated sway bar helps reduce body roll and improve balance, leading to sharper cornering and greater stability
* Confidence-inspiring control—the design provides improved handling for both daily driving and more demanding situations like autocross or track events
* Increased tire and wheel clearance—the chassis is engineered to accommodate larger, modern wheel and tire sizes that would not fit on a factory chassis
* More aggressive fitment—allows for wider tires (e.g., up to 275mm front and 295mm rear) with room for larger fitments, especially when combined with mini tubs in the rear
* Adjustable ride height—the system allows for roughly a 2-inch drop from stock but can be adjusted to the desired ride height
* Kit offers modular suspension options that allow for air or coilover setups
* Chassis is compatible with existing Ridetech A-body suspension components
* Engine and transmission flexibility provides provisions for various motor mount plates (small block Chevy, Olds, Pontiac, Buick, GMLS, or Gen 5 LT) and features an adjustable crossmember that adapts to popular automatic and manual transmissions
