Regular cab drag setup questions
#52
Regular cab short bed suspension formula for 1.5 60's on a 4/6 drop:
Front:
2" drop spindles
2" drop springs
QA1 12 way adjustables (will take very little modification to fit properly)
Remove front sway bar (you won't even notice it gone when shocks are set for street driving)
Correct alignment
Rear:
6" flip kit
C-notch
Clamp overload leaf in front only
QA1 12 way adjustables (both mounted straight up and down on back of rearend)
4* axle shims to reset driveshaft angle
Slicks
It took me 3 trips to the track to get the shocks dialed in where I thought they where perfect. If I remeber right, for me it was 5 clicks in the front and 4 clicks in the back.
With good power and correct converter/gear this setup is easy and deadly. No need for traction bars, aftermarket leafsprings, leafspring disassembly, aftermarket sway bars, shitty springs or shocks.
