this could be a good idea for you then....obviously you will go through some testing and tuning to re-evaluate the suspension and get it to hook but ideally it should ET better with a better weight distribution

just gotta get it on scales to get it right and you should also be in the car

Here's what I got when I weighted what came out of mine

Heater core, duct work, heater hoses and blower motor (non A/C car) 24lbs

Head unit, 4 6.5" speakers and insulation 25lbs

Overflow tank 4lbs

Firewall insulation 7lbs

Passengerside air bag 14lbs

What would be the easiest thing to do for a daily driver that doesn't effect drivability or appearance? Or is that impossible <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

I got 5 lbs for Cruise Control, 11 lbs for e-brake including handle. Handle was like 4 lbs.

!ABS is next up, any recommendations???

FYI, the stock posi in my 10 bolt was 25lbs. Stock axles around 32 lbs. The steel 12 bolt spool is 9.5 lbs and 33 spline gundrilled axles are 33 lbs. So it looks like the rotating mass will be less in my 12 bolt than the stock 10 bolt.

My CAR IS DWINDLING DOWN TO NOTHING!!!!!

Here's my weight loss program! This should be good for 50 lbs by July. If I keep to the schedule I can probably find at least 100 lbs by the Thunder Shootout! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
