Re: ladder bars
Hi,
I think that any racer who wants to work on their suspension owes it to themselves to buy Door Slammers: The Chassis Book by Dave Morgan... A very good read with a ton of info..... I bought mine over 20 years ago..... Bob

Re: ladder bars
The book is only $43 on Amazon, hard to beat.

Re: ladder bars
Hard,
The setup Mike presented has worked well for me with three different cars. [the slightly down position] I "think" with the average, slightly front heavy door car, that is a good setup. In addition, a rear anti-roll bar will change a very good working car to an excellent package. With three different situations, I have personally experience cars that were very consistent become copy machines with the addition of a rear anti-roll bar. [all three ladder bar setups] A 1990 Firebird that I campaigned for several seasons with the above setup could and did win without changing the dial in over a race of 7 - 8 rounds. It ran an average ET 6.15 in the 1/8th.
