Just skimmed this thing looks sweet, will have to read it later. I don't know why but I find it really funny that leaf spring bent, ok 4 link time!

Likely would have been OK if the traction bar was longer like caltrac and front mount by front bushing.

They were long, the snubber was just behind the front leaf mount. They bent on the first run and completely snapped off on the second launch. Launched it a couple of times kinda soft on the small road behind our building and it has quite a bit different feeling with the four link. And everything is still where it should be!!

Yeah I should not have listened to that goon, but can't blame anyone but myself. 4 link is done!!

It was funny cause the lady driving was late 60's and had her 3 grandchildren in the car with her!! That thing moved good for a grocery getter!! It was 1/8th mile but she drove it out the quarter as hard as she could and then tried racing me back to the timing people!! Have no Idea what it ran though. I ran a 7.45 @ 102mph spinning the entire way which is crap I know but went from a 1.826 60ft to a 1.589 60ft with new tires and leaving soft around 3lbs of boost. Next time out looking to leave on 6-8lbs for the first run and go up from there. would like to get to about 12lbs of the line and roughly 18lbs across the line.

At the front?

That 4 link looks like it's going to work great with lot's of adjust-ability to dial in the 60.

Old stock suspension setup.


And new suspension all done. About 80lbs lighter, much softer and rack and pinion. There is a ton of room up frontaround the engine now instead of everything smashed together!

Very nice. Where you get the rack and pinion from?
what's up with what looks like water lines running by the trans in the pic?

It's an IFS kit for a 56 GMC pickup that I've had laying around. The radiator hoses run to the bed where radiator is mounted. Those flex hoses are coming off and the aluminum tubing that runs under the cab to the bed will extend to the front with silicon bends to attach to engine.

I would love to see more of the rad set up. I was just thinking about that this week.

I'll get a couple of pictures tomorrow and put them up. Pretty simple.

Bad Apache

If you get a chance, check your inner tie rod clearance with the wheels turned and suspension compressed. I had to notch the frame slightly on mine. Easy peasy!
