RE: suspension chime in
sounds like you want to drag race... get strange 10 ways up front... not 70/30s, depending on how all out your going tubular a arms and k members are out there.... what about springs? imo... air bags in the stock rear, and 4cyl springs up front... unless your not on a budget....

RE: suspension chime in
ok then in that case... front... strange 10 way struts, 4cyl springs, no sway bar...rear... air bags in stock springs(or some lowering springs), cheaper control arms, some cheap 50/50s...
this pic is with just the front suspension mentioned above... stock rear suspension... stock car...
for a budget, thats the way to go imo

so far the stranges will run me about 240 for the pair and the rears which are lakewood 100 for the pair so 340 isnt too bad also would u suggest ss liftbars? and plain ol aftermarket uppers?

RE: suspension chime in
i forgot to tell you, thats on a drag radial, but i mean if dragracin is ur thing, drag radials should have been one of your 1st mods imo... theyll give you about a half second...
strange 10 ways are the ****... basically i can launch like that, or with my soft springs and no swaybar, i can make it handle better than stock...
and as for the 4banger springs, yup junkyard, or autozone has em new... for like 60 bucks

RE: suspension chime in
i wanna get those lift bars, their suposed to be top of the line... but cheap **** will do if your on a budget...
some one makes a 3way shock for the rears... and 50/50 is an option w. them... their cheaper then the lakewoods...if they still have them at summit...
if you dont have a drag radial or a good tire, id suggest trying to inc. about 300 into ur budget for them, you wont regret it...
