Re: Make it handle

Here goes. There are a bunch of chassis and suspension builders out there who claim to have great handling products. I CHALLENGE YOU to show up to Des Moines and/or Columbus and PROVE IT. The truck class needs more hard chargers. Lets show everyone that a well built truck CAN out handle a muscle car. Hope to see you there!

Re: Make it handle

Thanks for the your take on control arms and while on the front, what are your thoughts on the Ride Tech tall spindles? I think I've heard of using taller spindles to improve handling before, maybe Caprice for Camaros?

Thanks,

Re: Make it handle

I remember the dually from the movie.... but I don't 'remember' the scene. Now I'm going to have to dig it up for a 'review'.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
