    Which suspension mods??

    Hey guys a couple more things i'll be getting for the termi over the winter is suspension parts plus a ton of weight reduction for the track when i come home in June. I was thinking front coil overs conversion, tubular k-member, tubular front A arms and a bump steer kit?

    Any suggestions? Some past exp or educated knowledge would be greatly appreciated

    IMO Maximum motorsports offers the best suspension components. Lightweight? No.

    X2! Good tires and getting weight off the heavy front end of those cars will make a huge difference.

    A travesty in my opinion. Live axle is destroying an icon.
