[QUOTE="TRBO VNM, post: 7743266, member: 14678"] I wish I remembered why, but MM spcifically says not to run a solid bushing upper control arm. in fact, they told me to just stick with the stock upper arms. I have MM lower control arms H&R springs Tokico d-spec all the way around MM front coilovers with 14" 225# springs MM adjustable weld in sway bar the ride is ok. it isn't like factory, but it isn't a spine killer either. however, I will be changing it. I am not transferring weight like I want at all. it will transfer and then release too soon from what I am see in the vids. just not transferring enough. I believe a lot of it is the 3.31 gears I have. I am putting in 4.10's for a couple months and will see how that changes things. I also am planning on getting rid of the H&R rear springs. I think they are too stiff, but I did tell MM I wanted the car lowered and this was about all they had. I plan to probably try some stock gt springs, but I will cut them to get the ride height I want. the ride should be ok with the adjustable shocks to stiffen it up some and squat at the track because of the spring. I am probably going to go with a 12#, 250# front spring because the 14 is too long and bowing causing them to rub the coilover sleeve. I just did the full MM front suspension and have a lighter battery up there. so that should help as well with the transfer. it sucks running a 28" tall tire and wanting a car lowered at the same time. it doesn't leave a lot of options for suspension to perform at the track and street. BTW, if you do a panhard bar and torq arm, you can remove the upper control arms and not use them. I have the panhard bar, but not installed yet. not sure if I want to put all that on yet. Dave, are you running the kicker/quad shocks in the rear? [/QUOTE]
