front suspension limiters
who here is running them to keep the rear from squating so much in 4wd or awd? what do you use and where did you put them? i was thinking i could weld a bracket to the frame and lower A arm. then take a length of chain to connect them for track days then take them off for daily driving. how does that sound? reason being is my tahoe squats like a mother on launch and the front tires break traction and cause torque steer. after the turbo gets installed i see this getting way worse.

It is easier to stick a block in-between the top a-arm and bottom bracket. I made adjustable bolts that did not work. I plan on making wedjes that weill bolt in...

Modify your bump stops. I'm not sure what the 4wd trucks look like exactly, but you should have bump stops on the LCA and ones on the UCA that contact the frame. Modify the ones on the UCA (you can also use a beefy bolt) so they they're adjustable and you can preload then onto the frame. You're essentially locking out the front suspension so ONLY DO THIS AT THE TRACK. Hitting a pothole would be bad.
