    rear suspension lift

    Was just messaging with Laura over at ESPO. She gave me some options and prices. Says they are 3 month out for leafs though. I'm going to get my T' bars set closer first and make a decision from that point.

    [SOLD] 273 318 340 360 Adjustable Rocker Arms w/ Moroso Chrome Valve Covers

    I have early adjustables on my car for nearly 50 years now and they also have lock nuts on them. Never realized they weren't standard. I wonder if it was a change at some point?

    rear suspension lift

    A lot of good info there, AJ. I do know from all I've read is the height of E70's was a C-hair under 26". These 215's are supposed to be 26.7". The Rears, 28.1. I was pretty surprised by how much things were altered by other adjustments and I was an alignment mechanic 45 years ago. Coincidently...

    rear suspension lift

    I'm actually seeing it now on the after photo but it also looks as if the front is sitting higher too now. Look good in both pics though. My fronts are 215/70R15, Rears are 275/60R15

    For now, here's a better pic without any exaggeration of the tires and wheels. I still need to get those torsion bars adjusted and factory settings which should raise the nose even more.

    That stance looks great Brian, though the "before" pic seems to sit a little higher in back. I imagine it's because it's a true profile pic. I'd be happy with either one.

    Hey Joe, 100%. They actually aren't that big, I'll get a better pic. I see that springs and things is on the way to Carlisle. I drag my feet on getting back there every year but that may give me a reason to push myself. I don't like ordering stuff from afar for the most part. I prefer in person...

    No, I would prefer it lower but according to factory specs, it should be a little higher still. I had adjusted the torsion bars per manual while on jackstands as far as it could get them to the outside of the LCA's and it seemed fine. When I put the tires one and set it down, it adjusted and now...

    A side note... Not sure how that pic turned out so awkward. It looks like the nose has been stretched and the front wheels/tires look larger than the rears. I'll attach another when I get a free minute.

    rear suspension lift

    Yeah RRR, I debated just replacing the springs but I want to make sure it sits up a little higher than stock. The Duster/Demon body always looked like they sat too low to me. Thanks.

    Looking to get an inch, maybe 2?

    rear suspension lift

    Hey all, looking for opinions on the simplest way to raise the back end OTHER than air shocks. Here is how she sits right now and for factory numbers, I believe the nose still should come up a bit. Also, the rear tires are already over an inch taller (a little over a half inch to the axle) than...

    BF Goodrich radial T/A white letters

    Agree. The BFG are good looking tires but didn't want to chance the letters. I have a young friend who had a Red Monte Carlo pace car back in the day and he would routinely recolor his letters Yellow. Hahaha, I AIN'T that guy.

    BF Goodrich radial T/A white letters

    I read a ton of stories complaining about them turning brown but I would hope they rectified that. I didn't want to take that chance though and bought Mickey's. The smallest MT makes for the front though was 215/70s while I would have preferred 205/65s.
