adjustable rear shocks that is. At the track last week, the car was leaving pretty good. I am running a 28x10.5x15 et drag at 16 psi. I launched at 5500 rpm and cut a 1.66 60'. The thing I noticed is the top of my tire pretty much disappeared into the wheel wells. Every gear down the track the car was bouncing pretty good as I shifted. I'm thinking it was losing around .2 of a second due to the movement. What do you guys think about the strange adjustable drag shocks? If you recommend them, what setting do you run them on? I'm going back this friday for some n20 passes and want to get the most out of it. I am on stock springs with j&m extreme joint lca's suspension wise. Thanks in advance for your help

I don't have them personally, but have read quite a bit about them. They seem to work VERY well at the dragstrip. Supposedly, you should start with around setting 5 on the drivers side and 6 on the passengers side. Good luck man!
I have a full set. Run 5 in the rear and about 3 in the front.
I think it could also be your upper control arm if it is still stock.
I just put them on my car along with some lca's and dropped a tenth. The car doesn't squat bad anymore. I have then set on 9.
You must be married if all of the sudden your looking for some strange!
lol, i am married... im not getting wheel hop etc, the car just squats... alot! looking to transfer some of the to forward momentum
Springs will improve that better then any shocks of course i recommend both!
I don't want to lower the car. The rear tires fill the well pretty good and don't think it would work out too well.
What do you have 22's?
28x10.5x15 et drag
Same here. Just got my strange shocks in yesterday and will be putting them on when I get my LCA's some time this week.
Don't have to necessarily lower the car, just stiffer springs. I thought the CJ springs were only .25 but might be more like a full inch+ all around.
Around $90/each. Some of the cheaper ones around.
Me too!
I'm going to order mine tomorrow and see what happens friday
