Default Re: Late model F Body rear tire separation on stocker

Torque Arm controls pinion angle which should be zero under load. If the front is held stationary be sure to check. If you are using and adjustable arm then you can change the angle but pinion angle needs to be maintained at zero.


If you look at it as a 4 link the torque arm is the upper arms. Using the S&W seal puts the IC out there.


Generally the LCA should be level at ride height. Experiment from there raising and lowering the body or install the adjustable front mounts.

Rear coil springs are pretty important. The easy route is to use cargo coils they were stock on WS6 models. If you can find a set of the Eibach drag race springs but they are not marketed any longer. Santhuff has some front and rear springs contact Reinhardts.


Front should be as low as possible to store energy you will need to invest is good double adjustable shock/strut the cheap stuff does not work been there. Be prepared to cut the front spring install and remove several times to get it right.

Would think in most people opinion this suspension set up is pretty violent but using the S&W stuff the IC will be pretty far out and the car will work. For something a little more check out Apple Tree Engineering by Pete Z. Makes the rear suspension a short ladder bar the IC moves back. Been using this since my car was built know several who go low 10s with it. It MUST be installed correctly which may require slight modification to get the right fit.
