How about another "or" ?

That suspension really doesn't offer any separation to plant the tires, seeing that the instant center is somewhere out in front of the grille. Easiest change is to move the upper arm pivot up on the rear end. I made my own deal for the turbo car, but Jegs sells a kits that will accomplish it also. This way , you won't need so much of a pre-load setup.
The diagonal four arm suspension creates all kinds of weird dynamics for drag racing.
The pre-loaded Air Lift bags are just one way to get it somewhat under control.
