If you guys don't mind I'd like to pick your brains(?). 1st,What length ladder bars are they and 2nd, What spring rate do you use for the coilovers. I have a place that is local that made my rollbar and make suspensions too.3rd, Do you grind off the stock 4 link brackets?This would be a great time for a 9 inch rear then?
Thanks,Pat :beer

Chassisworks and S&W make 36" 'bars...I have the S&W dbl adjustable's.
Spring rate on my car is 170#
And yes,I took everything of the housing that wasn't needed..It's all dead weight.
