It's in your launch then, plus I am sure the weather was much better in April than now, that can account for a couple tenths easy. Are you spraying right out of the hole or are waiting till later to hit the button?

i try to spray out of the hole. but it wont hook. because my control arms are shot. all my buddies are off by 3 1/2 tenths because of the weather right now. but i ran an 11.97 in april on motor and now the best i can do is 12.6.

Besides control arms and K member, did you weld in subframe connectors? I'm not an expert, but the way you describe the left front coming up, sounds like you need subs. Will that affect the 60'?

i got sub frames. but it was pulling both tires in the air. my control arm busings have rubbed in a circular motion where they are bolted to.. so i know the bushings are shot. they are broke all the way to the edge of the control arm. on the top and bottom. i think im gonna order 8 bushings from upr on monday. ive only had these bushings for about 2 months and they are completely done. they are the urathane ones.

The polys are already toast? Wow. What company? I think I still have the prothane bushings in the basement. I've never used them and have no plans to. I don't know if they would work, as they have the oblong shape for the lowers and I have an '04, but if you're interested, PM me and we can discuss price. I'll snap a photo of all the components if you want, but in the mean time, I pulled this from summit racing.

I would contact UPR and ask to be sure first. If UPR says that the prothane pieces (these were for the stock CAs) will fit, I'll sell and see how much to 2 day them to you on Monday or Tuesday. However, I'm looking at the UPR site and all the bushings look round.
