Do a search for opentracker. He sells them, and has a write up here on how to make them. It will also show a pic.

those are what the spring sits on in the center of the upper A-Arm.

stock ones have rubber which are tight and slow movement.

what up ben and chris...

which one of you is gonna hit 10s first? I was on here looking for suggestions about having a front sway bar or none since ben considered it to me. So far it looks like no sway bar really seems to be the way to go. Get me one step closer to the 10s. It will be sick when you get your car up and running chris. We can go cruising in the 68,69, and 70.

Ben I might have found you a set of heads. One of my teachers has some moderate cleveland heads i'm gonna talk to him, get a little more info and see how cheap he wants to let them go. It sounded like he really doesnt give a crap about them

I thought a roll cage is mandatory in cars running 10.99 (1/4) or 6.99 (1/8) or quicker?

Click to expand...

It depends on the sanctioning body but yeah, that's the deal at the tracks around here. Add a full second to those times if it is a convertible. 12.99 and you need a 4-point bar, 11.99 and full cage is required. I've got mine setup so that I'd need a downhil track, 35 inches of barometer, or 20 degree day (yeah right in Tejas!) to ever see 11.99.
