What are the best suspension mods for these things for drag racing?
and what mods are actually worth getting found a guy selling quite a bit locally just wondering wnat pieces I should pick out of the lot

LCA'S with relocation brackets, phb, torque arm, sfc's, and obviously the front suspension parts like k-member, upper and lower a-arms. The best bang for your buck will probably be LCA'S and phb, but if you can get them all that would be best. Perferably fully adjustable if it's possible.

I'd say shocks first, sfc's, relocation brackets, torque arm.

Subframe connectors first ia t top car. Then LCA and panhard bar. Then the rear track pack from bmr help a lot to keep the car straight down the track. Remove front sway bar as well. Solid mounts help some. I don't prefer adjustable LCA. Boxed ones are better than tub as well in my experiance.

Not sure why you guys are suggesting a panhard rod. All that does is keep the rear centered - an upgraded piece won't do anything towards increasing traction. The SINGLE most important piece of your suspension is the TIRES.

For the front, QA1s, 275# springs. Tubular components help also - anything you can do to lighten up the front end will help dramatically.

For the rears, LCAs with relo brackets, drag shocks (Comp 3-ways work great and are reasonably priced), OEM springs, Wolfe (or equivalent) drag bar, SFCs, and a good solid torque arm (I have the Spohn).

I have that setup and 60' in the 1.43-1.45 range (vid).

I'm wanting the car to 60 in the high 1.5's low 1.6's with my set up think its doable with the 4k stall the suspension mods and 3.73's

won't have any of the front suspension done anytime soon due to the motor and tranny already being in looking at a set of pro stars right now and will probably get a set of mickeys on them and do the summit wheels for the street like talked about in the previous threads.

my bolt on car went a 1.69 sixty with just nitto 275/50 on racestars non adjustable tubular umi lca. 3600 fti stall 3.73 gears. im sure with a bigger stall i could cut low 1.6's

Those times can and have been done on stock suspension. If that's all you're looking for then I would do LCAs with relo-brackets and a good drag radial and call it a day.

Well i mean with the set up i have now thats the goal for whatever the car gets in the future I would love to be prepared for as well as far as rear suspension goes.

Don't discount rear coil spring located air bags - 15 psi on the Pass side and 5 psi on the Driver's - my dad told me about this, I tried it and it works - it's cheap too!

my dad always used to talk about that as well I assume that the springs these days are more advanced to where you can just adjust them instead I would figure

airbag, good tire, and stock suspension will go 1.40s on a good track

Interesting.

Guess I won't waste my time on suspension until I go out there with a good tire and see what the stock suspension nets me haha

Wondering the same thing.....

LCARs and MT/ET streets a very nice 1-2 punch

I was running consistent low 1.6s back in the cam-only days on a BFG drag radial with boxed SFCs - that's it. Stock suspension is very capable.
