OK, what do you use now? Rubber? Adjustable strut rods?

Which shocks do you use with your coil overs? Carrera? ProShocks? Koni?

Looked at strut rod eliminator kits. CR suspension mounting points aren't very thick except where the strut rod mounts. My thoughts were to fabricate lower control arm mount (like most street rods use) and weld to frame. Decided not a priority right now, and used the strut rods. Heidts and others appear to do better job on MII front ends than CR. Starting with a bare frame, knowing what I know now, we'd talk re-doing IFS & IRS.

Don't get me started on CR bashing. Am cutting up spare set of sidepipes as we speak for rebop. Would never have believed what's inside 'em had you guys not said something. Once swapped, I'll continue with carb & ignition tuning. Going with PowerPack 2 1/2" glasspacks. I'll try 'em before I coat 'em. If too loud, will do 2 1/4".

1.3 G!!! Awsome! They are putting instant bonding Super Glue in tires these days. Sticks when tire is on pavement, releases when tire lifts off. Amazing stuff
