About to install my wolfe adjustable rear spring kit and ive got a few questions.
I am running MT 28" slicks on a 15"rim no mini tub with 10" springs. Trying figure out if this has worked on other peoples cars. So

What spring is everyone using? IE 10" or 12".
What tire height are yall running?

I run a 10" 110 spring in the stock location but my adjuster is on the housing. It sits on a 275 radial that is even with the fenderwell.

110 # springs feel light? my 150# springs do and it squats too hard on launch.....

110 works pretty well for me at my weight (3000 pounds). I use the 110 so it hits the tire/radial harder. My car never squats on launch, it always separates from the tire/wheel well the harder I leave. You can probably see what I mean if you look at my avatar and how far the tire is from the wheel well.

girls squat, race cars should not. Do you have relocation brackets on your rear end housing? Need to adjust your instant center.

Here's the relocation brackets on my housing. The picture was before I put the spring adjusters on the housing but you will get the idea.

No I dont have relocation brackets was planning on just building some this winter. I just relocated my torque arm off the trans and it has multiple front mounting postions. (what hole should I start with) also what pinion angle you guys running? my front suspension is stock z28. rear is afco da's wolfe offset lca's. narrowed 8.8 ford rear.

I would just make sure that your lower control arm is level or slightly downward on the rearend side. I know you don't have relocation brackets but since you have adjusters you might be able to play with the angle that way. As far as the torque arm mounting point I would just start in the middle of the adjustment and see how it acts. I run -1 pinion angle and it seems to work well even on my shitty unprepped local track. Stock front stuff is no problem but ride height might be something to play with. I make sure the car is level by measuring the rocker (the one see when you first open the door) and making sure its at zero degrees. This will make sure the car isn't fighting the front end and give it a chance at transfering weight.
