Not sure what you mean buy pin the gas? But when I start out normally and then go full throttle I don't spin. I have performance tires so I guess that helps cut down on it.

I mean go full throttle. But yea i dont spin at all in first gear, and yes T/C is off lol. But then again maybe if i turned it on and watched for the little green tire it would give me a better idea. Well i was just curious if i am supposed to spin, oh well

I could with 3.27's and lowering springs. I can do it really easily with the 4.10's and drag radials.

Yeap. Their pretty simple. I did them in a home garage with two jacks and two jack stands. Its a really simple process. I did the uppers and then the lowers and we took our time and it took us about 2.5 hours to do it. If we were rushed I would say it we could have done it in about 45 minutes. LOL
