Only mods suspension wise is the 2 inch shackles. This weekend i am trying again, i hope i get the air springs to see how they help, but i did add a hitch, but more weight in the rear could help...tires are 285/60/16 BFG Radial TA's

dude i feel your pain...there is not happy mediums with these things...i have 3.73s but with 20s so its bout the same i would imagine...plus a worn clutch doesnt help me but very hard to launch these gutless wonders...

i dont know if its my trans, clutch or what but i cant shift into 2nd without grinding over 5200rpms...and 2nd to 3rd seems like and eternity to go into...oh well hopefully the t56 should take care of that

When's the last time you checked your clutch fluid?

2005: See if you can pick up a set of slicks or DRs. I'd like to see what kinda times you could get then.
