When you raise the rear up on those cars for tire clearance, the projected instant center goes out of this world. Do a search for no hops bars. Several companies offer them. Get the proper upper control arms. I'll have to assume that you've got the wrong lower ones,too. Don't forget some good shocks and air lift bags. That'll stop the bouncing.

Re: "G" Body suspention tips ?
CJohnson, looking at picture of your car, you want the body to lift in rear away from the rear tire when you leave the starting line, no hop bars change the control arms angle to make rear lift and plant the tires, also no adjustable lower control arms in stock. Tom
