Pedal to floor NO wheelspin :)

Finally after enough sus mods I have 0 wheel spin. Went with BMR torque arm set at -2* , BMR relocation brackets , Hotchkis LCA's and Panhard Rod, and a set of BFG drag radials. I'm very happy

So you saw a great improvement then? I'm just smoking street lengths at the moment. I think I need some suspension mods. How much did it all cost you and how difficult was it to set up?

Thanks

Rob

Torque arm was 335 Brackets were 100 drag radials were 280, LCA and panhard were 289. So about a grand. BIG improvment Very easy to setup. About a few hours needed

Right now I have minor suspension mods and I have no wheel spin with pedal to floor. But it could be the 2.8 under the hood, not sure! Good job, wish I had the power to worry about that!
