Roadstershop REVO IFS

[Tony@Roadstershop]

REVO IFS is a new standard. To create a new standard we had to start from scratch. REVO has been created from the ground up, leaving behind the antiquated Mustang II geometry and ride quality where it firmly belongs: in the past.



Controlled roll centers, eliminated bump steer, and CAD optimized camber and caster curves provide a suspension that offers the absolute best combination of ride quality and street performance. With 5.5” of wheel travel and positive and negative bump stops, the REVO front end allows smooth articulation through the full range of motion, creating the most comfortable, balanced and street friendly dynamics possible within this package.

A new and innovative integrated sway bar design allows the use of a 1” OD splined sway bar tube, with no external mounting necessary. The carefully designed packaging leaves one of the smallest crossmember footprints available today, leaving you with more room and clearance to position your drivetrain where you want it without compromise.

The REVO front end has been designed from scratch using the latest CAD development software and design processes. 115 unique components were designed and manufactured for this suspension, allowing a fresh design template to build the ultimate IFS without compromise. Keeping with the latest manufacturing processes to raise quality while controlling costs; laser, plasma, CNC milling and turning are all employed in the manufacturing of these components. With a years’ worth of in house development, the REVO IFS has been fine-tuned and streamlined to redefine the standard for street performance suspension.

The REVO IFS will be offered as direct fit crossmembers for:

• 1947-54 Chevy trucks
  
• 1955-59 Chevy trucks
  
• 1953-56 Ford trucks
  
• Universal IFS packages for custom applications with a 29” inside frame rail dimension.
  

The REVO IFS will also be standard on the following Roadster Shop chassis:

• 1947-54 Chevy trucks
  
• 1955-59 Chevy trucks
  
• 1960-66 Chevy C10 trucks (Also available with Fast Track IFS)
  
• 1967-72 Chevy C10 trucks (Also available with Fast Track IFS)
  
• 1953-56 Ford trucks
  
• 1949-54 Chevy Car
  
• 1955-57 Chevy Car (Also available with Fast Track IFS)
  
• Custom Chassis
  

Part Highlights:

• Delrin Bushings: Less compliant than rubber bushings that fail over time with normal use, yet compliant enough to ensure a comfortable ride by eliminating unwanted road feedback through the suspension.
  

• 1 ¼” Upper Control Arm Tubes, 1 5/8” Lower Tubes: Heavy duty control arm tube’s won’t deflect under heavy loads, and keep the suspension’s geometry intact over all aspects of driving. 3/16” and ¼” thick TIG welded gussets ensure rigid connections to the coilovers and sway bay components maintaining structural consistency under load.
  

• Wilwood Pro Spindles: Available with either a stock height or 2” drop configuration to suit specific ride height desires. Forged construction makes them three times stronger than comparable cast spindles and advanced geometry gives improved handling. Along with Wilwood’s reputation for quality, this make the Pro Spindle the perfect fit for the REVO IFS. Brake options are also available to meet all needs. A vast line of brake systems are available from 11” to 14” diameters. The Pro Spindles also allow the use of 15” wheels, and are strong enough to accommodate the larger brakes and wheels desired in today’s market.
  

• 1” OD, .095” Wall splined sway bar: High grade spring steel is used to make these sway bars hold a more consistent spring rate, and they won’t plastically deform like convention bent tube sway bars.
  

• Lower Eccentric Control Arm Bolts: Aligning your front end has been made faster and easier through the use of the four eccentric bolts on the lower control arms. Aligning the front end through the lower control arm makes access easier and setup requirements smaller, allowing your vehicle to simply drive up on your mechanic’s lift without the need to remove the wheels, inner fenders, or any of the control arm bolts.
  

• The standard coilover shock selected for the REVO IFS is the Afco pro-touring series based on their proven performance and ride quality. A non-adjustable shock is included with the base kit, but upgrades are available to single and double adjustable. For those who are looking for the ultimate in performance and ride quality, the Roadster Shop has teamed up with Penske Racing Shocks and has developed a specific valved shock for our suspension. This will be offered in double adjustable and remote reservoir set ups for those looking for the pinnacle in performance coilovers.
  

Additional Part Information:

• Modular 1 piece crossmember design takes the guess work out of installation in a stock frame and ensures that all suspension geometry remains correct.
  

• C6 End Links for Sway Bar – OEM level performance and quality that yields a quiet, maintenance free part for the life of your suspension.
  

• Close Ratio Power Rack and Pinion Steering
  

• 57.75” Track Width with standard 11” Brakes
  

• Made in USA, Moog ball joints and Timken bearings
  

• Grade 8 Plated Hardware
  

• 11” disc brakes with Wilwood calipers
  

• Double shear mounting on all components

WOW!
Super nice.
Thank you for sharing.

[oldman3]

That is a great looking front suspension, can't wait to see one up close...Jim

Looks very nice, but you have no installed pictures on the 60-66 trucks....I'm more than willing to drive down to let you put one on my truck...you can take as many pictures as your want

[Big Rick 53]

I think I want one in my 66 sub and 1 for my living room just to look at.

[INSIDIOUS '86]

Never any 73-87 love in the aftermarket...so sad 15yrs of truck and they never exist right? Haha. Well if it fits 67-72 then it fits a square.

I wanna see some install pics!

Been waiting to hear about this. Very interesting & very clean.

[Tony@Roadstershop]

Thanks for the compliments!

Big Rick.... I can do that for you.... and I would imagine we could figure out some custom cup holders for you too

Insidious.... We could certainly do one for the 73-87. We only need a truck to build it off of as we have not had a 73+ in the shop for a chassis yet.

Scoti,... yes, we are excited about it too!

What rack is used and is there an option to go with a manual rack? We've all seen your C10 that competed in the Optima Challenge and were very impressed. Do you have any 67-72 trucks that are using your front crossmember instead of your FT chassis?

Its amazing how many people actually paid attention to that little orange and white farm truck You could go with a manual rack however, I would not recommend it. The geometry being what it is and the ability to dial in more castor with using todays wider/stickier tires..... A vehicle with a little weight to it would be tough to steer on low speed. We don't have any completed crossmember only 67-72's yet.

So school me on the set-up.... Is it a modular x-member set-up much like Porterbuilts, Hotchkis, No-Limits & Scott's so we can benefit from the geometry w/o having to do the full boogie chassis? I would like the full chassis, but the cost is tough on a blue collar budget when there are others areas of the truck requiring 'equal investment opportunities'....

[Wasted Income]

Wow!!!!!!! Will you take a Wide Ride with zero miles in on trade?? lol

So hawt!

[Custom 68]

you guys have done a great job with this. Looks super.

Scoti,
Yes, you are correct... now if you are doing crossmember only, I would suggest reinforcing the existing chassis to eliminate the natural flexing the OE chassis are prone to.

[jimmydean]

Wow, that looks incredible.

[st1]

Tony, I got a 78 GMC StepSide that I am willing to drop off at your shop for you and the crew to use as a test vehicle/mule for a year. If some new 'pieces' get left on the truck when I pick it up then so be it. Let me know.

Insidious, is right 73-87 is usually left out by the aftermarket.

[Tony@Roadstershop]

ST1.... I appreciate the offer and don't worry, the 73-87 may feel like the step child but as it continues to increase in popularity the aftermarket will follow.

[JointTech]

wow that thing is pretty. no love for us 8lug guys though

[Hart_Rod]

Beautiful piece of metal!

[502ms]

Very nice.
