i was wondering if anyone has ran these things on their SS/TCs yet? and how do they feel for daily driving? or have ppl just been using some stiffer springs and/or CA bushings?

 

anybody?

 

mounts and cabs and have fun.

 

already have the mounts, how are the cabs for installing? and what would be the stiffest spring to go with?

 

i would just use footballs

 

lol. not trying to do it the ghetto way lol. wanna just hit the road and go.

 

then drag bags :-P

 

lmao, ive thought about it, my friend has em on his LS2 GTO........where can you find those? havent really searched for them tbh.

 

not sure im buying a set used this weekend

 

the trac bars work fine for me; I daily it with 1/2 turn, then 1 turn for when I plan on screwing around.
At 1 turn, you do get some front end noise similar to swaybar endlink noise, but its worth it.
At 1/2turn, I dont notice any suspension issues when backroading either

While its "ghetto" as you put it; The footballs work the exact same as drag bags, just cheaper.
They work; at 15psi in them, I had significantly less wheelspin from a 40roll than before them.
I just let the air out of them and keep them in there for daily drivability.

Get powell LCABs and TCABs; Best money Ive spent besides the phenolic spacer.
They took me about 20minutes per side, hung over at 7am(I can only work on my car when Im off the clock)

 

Nice input

 

I got these air bags. They seemed to work ok. I think Casionerd is running them as well.

 

thanks for the link, do u think 75$ shipped is a good buy for a used set?

 

Hey bud, those are the exact bags I bought. Thanks to the info from this forum
They worked great BTW, ~20 psi and instant traction.

 

lol i know they work the same i was just saying lol. but where exaclty do you place the football in the back? and u fill the football up with 15psi? kills the squat a little? and what football do you use? thanks for the input bud. how much did those LCABs and TCABs cost you?

 

:-P great info, just doing my research tho lol, seems like they will help out

 

$75 for a used set, if it is complete, is a fine deal. I'd pay that.

 

I pulled my springs out of the rear(pedders); deflated and shoved the footballs inside the spring(was a bitch honestly), then slowly aired them up so I could seat and "clock" the footballs so the hole to fill them would be easily accessible. shoved them back in and bolted shocks back up and pulled it off the lift.
Yes, filled the footballs with 15psi
I picked up some peewee sized ones, got them on sale at wally world.
Been a while since I picked up the powell setup, Best bet is to email john or gloria and ask them and get you a set.

Shitty Iphone pictures but should be good enough...



This is how she sits with the footballs in the springs, but not aired up.


Heres the bars, I have since played with the front heim joint mounting, and I have less noise when at 1 full turn

 

thanks bud, ill have to check out the pics when i get back, cant see most pics on military computers smh. lol. but ok, i might hit them up for the bushings. maybe ill see how these bars and footballs do the job, im gonna end up doing some good stiff springs too eventually. any suggestion on a stiff spring? that gives it a little bit of a drop too? i hate our monster truck stock look lol.
