was wondering if some of you guys could give me your opinions about your shocks, and body drops yall are using? Are they helping out your 60ft times by getting off the line quicker over stock suspension? or could you not tell a difference?

My Hotchkis 2/4 helped with traction and with wheel hop.
Now with my Vig, I can't hook for ****.
I'm thinkin of gettin those Cal Tracs and see how they work, or wait and save for a 4-link setup. Just gotta save now, V-day set me back a couple days

4 link suspensions have no means of locating the lateral movement of the rear suspension,this can be remedied by adding a track bar or panhard bar to limit the side to side movement making it a 5 link suspension.4 link suspensions are commonly used in drag racing,but 5 links are more desirable where cornering is needed.
