67 Dart Build Triangulated 4 link & Mini Tub

Hey Joe,

Is there a reason why they say it is only good til the 10's? Not that I will be going any quicker than that.

I was hoping that the Bigger Tubes and Rod Ends would help if I stepped up the power to 7-800hp+ or so someday. One thing I did do is use a 1/4" wall thickness on the Shock Tower. My feeling is with MAX power applied that would be the weakest link in the system. I feel that it will try and RIP the upper link bar tabs right off the Shock tower. That is why I will be doing gusset's on those connections wrapping them around the Shock Tower fully welding up and around the tower, also on each end of the shock tower along the bracket that I made to tie to the frame rails to strengthen it up even more. I will also add them on all the bracket tabs that hold the link to the axle. This way if the car ever pitches sideways the gusset's will add more strength in those areas.


i'm sure it has nothing to do with the strength of the stuff. more the design. the RMS stuff is/was designed more for cornering then the drag strip. the drag strip was just an added bonus. i think at the 10 second mark you may be better off with a true 4 link or ladder bars if going through all the trouble building the suspension. give bill a call, i'm sure he will explain it better then i ever could.
