Rear, upper and lower control arms

[trink408]

Building a new car, need some suspension advice from the drag race crowd.

What kind of upper and lower control arms are you guys running?
I plan on pushing my car pretty hard(10 second zone), so I need something descent. Not sure if adjustable upper and lower bars are the way to go or not. Any success stories or nightmares would be appreciated.


Thanks for looking

any double adjust upper will work...using upr's myself

I like my lakewood traction action lowers

I'm running Wolfe Racecraft double adjustable uppers and adjustable weight jacker lowers. Works great. I think damn near everything on the market will work. Mustangs have good stock suspensions to work with.

For alot f power I reccomend a strait single adj. lower. I ran SSM lowers for years, but when I stepped up the power they stopped working. They would hit the tires hard then unload and spin. I did run in the 10 teens with them though......If you get an adj. lower you can get the tire centered in the wheel well fo a little more room....

Are you running adjustable upper bars?

What brand of upper and lower bars are you running?

Are you running an anti-roll bar?

Thanks for the help

solid bushings, & sperical upper bushings are a good idea. also get some lowers that let you adjust the spring hights from side to side in the rear.
I would also weld up the torque boxes before you bend or rip them up.
I would also look at an anti roll bar, because its a drag car.
I have all TRZ stuff, I don't think they are in bus. anymore.
