Default Suspension questions....

Ok I have the stock suspension on my 99 WS6, I'm looking to get lower control arms and an aftermarket torquearm. What brand would you recommend, also what kind of gains can one expect with these 2 pieces?

I still run the stock torque arm on mine so I can't help much on that.

I run Metco LCA's & Hal rear shocks. That with the Moser 12 Bolt & 4.11's were good for back to back 1.6 60' times today on the BFG drag radials.

BMR makes terrific stuff (especially for the price). I've run BMR products on both my SS and the Z and have been 100% satisfied w/ both.

Now having said that...unless you're having a horrible time w/ traction...it's not likely that you'll gain anything w/ these mods. FWIW...I was cutting 1.5x 60's w/ my Stock Torque arm in a 6 speed. With your auto (not hitting the rear that hard on launches)...your stocker should be fine.

Are u still running stock shocks/springs? If so, that's where I'd go to work first. Just adding a set of front Hals will help more than a torque arm (IMO of course).

BTW...."Trash-ville?" C'mon now...you're slamming my home town.
