October, 2105 Update
Rear suspension (C5 uprights, upper and lower A arms and coil overs) completed and being tested. Considering C5 front suspension.
I am a Mechanical Engineer by trade. Basically I located the wheels in the wheel wells and attached the C5 A arms and built a sub frame to locate them, keeping the C5 geometry. I have not driven it much, but may want to make a change or two to gain more road clearance and to change the location of the toe control link. I also need to add more adjustability to allow camber settings.
November, 2019 Update
This summer I completed my C5 front suspension. I used C5 A arms, uprights, rotors calipers and wheels. Rear wheels are 18 x 10 and fronts are 17 x 9. I have QA1 coilovers front and rear. Steering rack is Mustang II. The subframe is fabricated from 2 x 2 and 2 x 3 steel tubing.
