rear suspension choices

I use the Hotchkis leafs, adjustable tubular sway bar, front spring hangers, and Bilstein shocks. Race and track proven setup. Designed from the start for handling. Same leafs they run on the E-Max Challenger that ran top 3 times in the Optima Challenge spotting the competition 200+ horsepower (Bad Penny, Stielow).

The front segment has two huge second leaf to keep the spring from wrapping up. Also has one leaf on top of the main spring to keep from. hopping under braking. They weighed less than my stock 340 springs.

Elana that has a blue 440 Challenger that she runs at the drags noticed that the car hooked better with the Hotchkis leafs over the Mopar Performance XHD replacement leaf. She iniatially thought all the handling suspension stuff was going to hinder her 1/4 mile drag performance a little. But it actually got a little better. -Probably due to the two thick and long under supporting leafs in the front segment.

Now the Hotchkis leafs aren't probably going to hook at the Dragstrip like MP Super Stock springs. But those purposely leave the rear of the car heigher on one side. The Super Stock springs are designed for the dragstrip, the Hotchkis springs are designed for the roadcourse, autocross, and street handling.
