ANYBODY REMEMBER THIS OLD WHEELIE TRICK ?
 

I dont know why i thought about it today but there use to be a trick to help u pull the front tires off the ground,

had somthing to do with bolting a loose chain to the frame and then to the bottom controll arm (a frame),

anybody remember that trick or how they did it.

just a thought...lol

sounds like what off roaders do with limiting straps but they dont do it for wheels they do it to limit droop over rocks ect

It is still done today on many race car's :!: :!: You can get front end travel limiter's from comp engineering or any chassis shop :!: :!:

limiter
 

I have a 1" nut welded into the top arms with a long 1" bolt . I can fine tune my front end travel to the track and car. Works great.!!!!If you have a race track that will not hook well,i can raise the limiters and get a little more weight transfer to the rear,or if the track is hooking great,i can bring it down a little for a better 60 foot time.

I've got the same set up on my 56 Chevy and it does works great!
