I need to let the rearend hang then measure to see what options I have for length. Once the suspension has full range of extension it should ride and launch much better. JD

P.S. I ended up pre-loading the springs with fairly long extensions on the front of the traction bars. It really helped straighten out the launch in terms of kickout and body twist. Well that and the subframe connectors! lol
