The 5658/5413 Moogs generally are what are recommended for slight lowering. I tried the drop spindles once, the tires went into the inner fenders, so I only had them on for 5 miles.
Any of the Dorman or aftermarket fusible links will work. I would splice them using non-insulated butt connectors, then use the marine heatshrink to cover them. I actually put a remote starter solenoid in the trunk, and relocated the fusible links there.
I've used Dynomax Super Turbo's, Pype's Race Pro's, both are fairly quiet at idle and crusing, but get louder at WOT. It makes driving enjoyable when you can hold a conversation in the car. I'm not sure how some people do that.
I've done several vehicles just welding in plates on the bottom from the scrap pile. My Tahoe, for example doesn't have much aftermarket support, so that's about the only option to get rid of some of the flex.
I haven't heard that saying, so I guess I've been successfully doing it wrong for 30 years. Heard way too many stories of engine fires from filters up by the carb.
I like to put the filter between the frame hardline and the fuel pump. Keeps any risk of leaks down low off the engine. I had a friend that had the glass one leak up on top of the engine, so ever since then, I've always thought about the what if's.....
I've not installed the kit, but have put new body bushings in, and had to weld in large washers to repair the mounting holes in the frame I suspect you will run into similar issues there. Marking the holes is critical for putting the body back on. I did fabricate a tube to go between the rear...
I've not seen any down sides to the tall ball joints. They are mainly for better handling, but shouldn't hurt on the strip.
I wouldn't run without a sway bar on the street. I've heard people even talking about how squirelly they can get just trying to keep them straight.
I'm running...
Could be, but the air moving thru the tubes isn't staying there long enough to soak up any heat. I've had a few instances where I've opened it up in town and almost sucked in a couple of small dogs in the screen.
Welded 3" exhaust pipes to the back of the headlight buckets, then to a dual snorkel air cleaner. Never did any back to back runs, but I'm sure it's at least 0.0001 faster in the quarter. I can tell it when the weather is below 50, the engine runs a little colder..
Got the tires in and mounted this week, finally had a decent day to get the car out. Really liking the way it looks. The Year One center caps aren't the best, they have plastic fingers that hold them in two went in difficult, and one actually broke one of the fingers. The other two kind of...
Wow, I've had these rims a year, never could find anyone that would paint them. Had a guy that wrapped the spokes. Just ordered tires. Excited to get them on this spring and see if I need to trim the front springs a little.
