Re: 4 link adjustment on drag radial

John is right a Drag Radial does not like to be shocked, dead hook also if they spin they will go into shake this breaks things, as rules of thumb, start with a lot of front tire drop, easy on extension on the rear hard on comp, 16-18 lbs in those tires. Its a very small window to hit, converters an...

When you worked on the front spring it may have changed the preload in the car that was helping, sort of. I would put in the Anti roll bar and have less preload it in. If you want the front lower put in a lighter spring but dont let it go into coil bind. Moroso trick springs work well if its a stock...

Everyone that starts by adding the big angles when they get things under control, go back to the stock locations as light a spring as will hold it at ride height with a double adj. shock and, double adj control arms is all the need in the back, with a anti roll bar

I know this is a old post but, you cant make a converter without knowing the power made, if they did it was just a geuss from all of the combo's close to yours they made which a lot of the big names can do, I like Marv at A-1 he is the guy that started it all. N/A motors want 100-200 over peak torqu...

Hey gus, Does it spin? If it does, you put all those nice new bushings in the front without any spring you had t push the a-arms up and down right? Thats a bad thing, and if you tightened them while it was up they tend to try to hold it there. First thing I would do is to add ny-locks to the front a...

The spring cant stick, the shock might just unbolt the bottom and see if it comes up, if its the tire you better hit the alignment machine and check setback and thrust angles
