Guys running 10's... What's your suspension?
 
I'm just wondering what kind of suspensions the guys running 10's have. I'm looking for DD set-up's and not something for a race only truck. Basically what kind of front and rear drop and any kind of particular things. Thanks.

JDM Front Drag Springs, QA-1's all around, and a simple set of Std Shackles.

With a set of 15" Bogarts and 30" Hoosier's it manage's consistant low 1.4 60ft's (1.41, 1.43, and (2) 1.45's last time out) 1.45 when I ran the 9.9.
Best 60ft for the truck so far was a 1.39 with Evan Smith Driving it to 9.74

My rears too high and my front too low ( bumper hits way too much) so I need to think about some change but I'm afraid to touch it with the 60fts it been putting down :banana:
(might be easier to just paint the bumper every yr or so) :devil:

As for Daily Driven it truly drives PERFECT in all conditions....

Rob,

How important would you say the JDM drag springs are to your suspension set-up? Are they good on the street. You're running pretty much the same suspension as me minus the JDM springs. I already have a set of 15X5 Bogarts for the front with some rubber on them and I have a set of 15X10 Bogarts for the rear. I haven't purchased the 30" Hoosiers yet, but that's one of my next things to buy. I also need to set aside some time to grind the calipers to make the Bogarts fit. What compound Hoosiers do you run? C06, C07, D05???

i think most people run the C07 compound.....

Hey Rob--Did you cut your JDM springs?
I'm assuming you're using your stock '00 rear springs--did you remove any of the leafs--and if so which one?
Are those "Std Shackles"--2" shackles and have you seen any wear issues?

Rob brought the truck as a 9 sec pass Daily Driver
The ony wear issues he has is the amount of wax he puts on that bodywork:lol:
