Default Rear suspension is in the mail!!!!

Relocated upper control arms are on the way. I know most of you guys probably haven't even heard of these things, but they correct the rear 4-link geometry and should help quite a bit to knock down my 60fts. I also ordered the double adjustable lowers as well. I'll have some solid uppers and lowers for sale here in about a week if any are interested

Check out these beauties!!!

Im sure a lot of people on here have heard of them...just most dont feel like blowing $400 on upper control arms. I was going to get the baseline suspension kit with the relocated UCA's and double adjustable LCA's with anti-roll bar but i didnt feel like dropping that much into suspension back then. Now that i have money to play with, im going a completely different direction with my car. But yea, those should work very well for you. Now start putting the power through it and she'll really shine.

Bird.... you are gonna have to install and anti-sway bar, so would recommend you look into the MMRSB as you have no mounts on those. I run the #5 in the #2 hole, but not after zero body roll as you would be on the 1/4.

Are you going to drive your car on the street much?

^ exactly....

I thought you need to address body roll on launch-pad via VERY stiff roll bar? As y'all know I am not a drag guy, but.....

The lowers I ordered have sway bar mounts welded on. I might be going with an ARB in the future. I need a set of adjustable uppers to correct my pinion angle, so I figured do it right the first time. The ones that are on my car came with it and are non-adjustable.

These in combination of my new strange 10-ways should get my 60s down to the 1.6 range hopefully and in the mid 12s. I'll be happy with that N/A. I have a 125 shot that I haven't sprayed yet cause I'm waiting to get the suspension dialed in. I'll be spraying til I can afford the KB 2.6 or 2.8H. Might be a while. That why I have the spray for the meantime
