Did you miss my post about how the truck is at speed. Or just not wanting to give up the secrets keeping it stable at those speeds?

the alignment is the key to keeping it stable...

it has drag shocks and no sway bars...but like i said the ALINGMENT is very important, it is set up when the truck is on power ( nosed up ) the steering whell gets a bit harder and is more stable

Makes sence. Few people probably would have thought about lifting the front a bit for the alignment! Stay safe out there!

You TM set up was identical to your 1/4 set up just 75 nitrous at the 1320 vs. 150 at the mile?
