I totally agree on doing things once. But stock shocks are 26 a pair, and Vikings look to be between 350 and 400 a pair! THAT is a shocker!!:rolleyes: I wouldn't buy expensive single shocks for sure. I'll spend the DA money when I see how badly I need them, as Kendog 170 mentioned.
Hi Steve, I hope that hood you came down for helped you out somehow.
Anyway, are stock bushings a personal preference, or do you feel they're quicker? Maybe the poly just isn't necessary? Years ago, I was a partner on a Stock Eliminator car. We used rubber, and left them loose with double nuts to make sure they were loose. I'm not sure I want a street car THAT loose. (The bolts were pivoting in the holes.)
Yeah, I tighten them at ride height.
As to limiting the travel, we did something similar. We used a small block bar on the passenger side, and a big block bar on the driver's side. That was after running the car a while, and experimenting. I'll try stuff like that on my car as I go.
Any more thoughts on ball joints? Proforged has an upper that's .5" longer than stock. Would that work w/o affecting geometry? Thinking about increasing travel, if necessary.
Thanks, everyone.
