Hooking up problems Okay guys just like the tittle says. I can't hook up for crap at the track. Do I need bigger tires
I got all the suspension (look in link)
QA1 shocks are 2 - front 1L/2R - rear (L=LEft, R=Right)
M/T 26'' x 10.5'' - 16''LT ---- I think the tires are kinda small?
good burnout in the box
getting out of the whole side ways
No nitrous yet

try having someone watch what the rear of your car is doing when you launch hard. does it "squat", is one side much higher then the other, stuff like that. because you can adjust most of that with the springs and shocks.

pinion angle is set at -2.... I'll try -1. and stiffening the rear shocks
putting 421 RWHP and401 RWTQ.
The one time it actually caught the posi broke in three parts, the time before that the yolk, driveshaft broke.

streetwarrior96, you pretty much have everything for the rear suspension. Maybe LCA relocation brackets will help some? After that, all you can do is tweak everything. Go ahead and change the pinion angle and stiffen the rear shocks, then see what happeneds.

yes it was a joke haha.. wow i was hoping that wouldnt shoot over anyones heads.. i got relocation brackets like stated right above and they helped a lot. but with a 383 lt4 its gonna take a lot of sticky to keep your tires planted. do you have a 12 bolt? never forget no amount of suspension can make up for shitty tires

I got LCA (BMR Boxed) with the relocation brackets
