Transmission: T10, hurst shifter
Axle/Gears: 10 bolt, true-trac, 3.73
Rear control arm relocation brackets and boxed/new control arms. Poly bushings all around as well.
That's my opinion at least.

Yea, and 50' ladder bars...
I'm guessing those foot symbols were supposed to be inch symbols ( " ) instead...


What are you doing with the car anyway? Just drag race, or...?

Drop springs and ladder bars seem to be contradictory in my opinion.... Depends on what you want to do with the car. However I think new poly bushings all around are a very good investment.
