Wonder how this would hold up to hard launches? You say chase is running the same on his SSS?

Anyone with a lifted up truck if you run limiting straps and have them tightend up without decranking does it keep the truck from wanting to walk all over the track or do you still need to decrank it ?

Here the link to Chase's thread: https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...d.php?t=414845

He made an excellent step-by-step how-to, with great pictures.

yep, thats the link that I followed. Works great. I have leveling keys cranked all the way and the strap a tight as it will pretty much go. On hard launches it will only lift about an inch. I have a video from my gopro at the track. I'll see if I can find it and I'll post it up.

straps dont break , ask any guys racing real score.

kevlar straps are used on stuff beat on 100x harder than any launch we can muster up .

i made a set a while back , imo these can be easily adjusted , look clean and work great , they also pick up slack when not in use at the track with the clevis bolt and spring

if you need these do it right, i have now swapped to qa1 shocks and can adjust them however i want to make no movement at all with the turn of a ****

here is the info on mine
