I'm looking to get more traction, I'm tired of fishtailing on launches and in turns, what would you guys recommend for the biggest bang for the buck to help me gain traction?

Thanks...

31 spline axles, LCAs and some slicks

Panhard Bar and Torque Arm go a long ways when looking to improve rear traction. Get that out of the way, then get some quality lower control arms and you're on your way to a very stout set up.

How much will all of that cost me?

torque arm and panhard bar. thats the way to control the corners.

www.maximummotorsports.com and www.griggsracing.com both make execellent open track/auto cross suspension components.

lowering the car will help a lot too. if you do lower the car get the Maximum caster camber plates, they are the best currently on the market.

that's not going to help the bind in the control arms.

LCA's, UCA's and a solid swaybar before you look at a PHB/R.

In your sig area you have the credits from last night's Southpark episode.

It may not stop bind, although, with a Torque arm, in most cases, the upper control arms are eliminated, correct? Besides the PHB, T/A and LCA's, the sway bar is a good recommendation. But why buy UCA's if the T/A replaces it and does a better job? If I'm mistaken, then I'm sorry but, as far as I know, it's a far superior set up over our current 4-link design.

Just start with some juicy 315's. They are tougher to spin if you want something that's going to look cool and work.

Well in order to run a TA you have to have certain specs ie: subframes, PHB, choosing gears. UCA's are eliminated correct. but you need to take baby steps in order to reach a TA setup even though you don't really need a heavy-duty type suspension for most driving consitions, that's why i'm saying stay with the 4-link beef it up and if you want more then you can upgrade after that. start with the basics

unless you get a hard compound like sumi's

315/35/17 Nitto DR's on some nice 17x10.5 rims!

no i mean the hard compound part. does that mean theyre easier to spin

 

[tomustang]

they are harder to heat up, so less traction
