XSIZPWR- gary is that you?

Before you go and back half your car ask your self what you ultimate goal is, if you think you're gonna get fair races on the street or at a grudge night with a 4-link car your wrong. I've watched quite a few 4-link car go down down the road every which way but straight-4-limks don't work on the street-i think it has to do with the crown of the road-

Anyway good luck with whatever you do- I'm looking for ANOTHER car to start on, just sold the 67 4spd car!!

Steves1967, I have owned and driven plenty of Pro Street cars. The ladder bar cars have been the most relieable as far as hiem joint wear, but the way the 4 link cars were done I've had, they were very stable. I really believe it is how the 4 link and ladder bar suspension is set up by whoever does the work. I have seen plenty of ladder bar cars dog track as well as 4 link cars. And I've seen then sway, both suspension styles. I just enjoy being able to get more forward, not up bite with the 4 link set up. Now if you want a car that sways, try a blown big block/ 4 speed in a monza coupe with a leaf spring/ladderbar rear suspension and floaters !!! Yeah, you hang on to the wheel!!!
