It's a great bar for a street/strip car. You get the benifit of a stiffer bar without the added extra noise of a solid mounted race bar.

It's basically a big stock replacement, comes with everything need to replace the stocker.
That is what I am gonna throw on my car then. Thanks

Ok, this might be stupid but can you guys that are running the billingsley or the wolfe tell me how to mount the tabs, I know they have to be welded, but is there a certain height to mount them? Do I start with the heim joints screwed all the way in? Do I want the arms from the bar flat at ride height or slightly up/down. And I read in another post you want someone about the same weight as yourself setting in the car and adjust the driver front spring up enough to make the car level then set your drag bar. Sorry for the questions, I just got the 9"in and trying to finalize everything but this kind of threw me for a loop as far as setting it up CORRECTLY.
Thanks

I did some looking and looks like that they should be flat to the ground or slightly upward I think.
