Is a forum.. So sick of people whineing about what is said... You dont like it you have full control.. Log off, close your eyes... Due something besides complain about others exercising they're civil liberties.. Besides all i said was if it aint right .. Then it should be fixed with out a "fight" cause that is what is right. Hence why at the end i said its just my opinion. That's what forums are about opinions.

Looks like you found it, but I have a copy of it if you ever need it.

it was like yours """twisting''' FIRST PASS BUT IT WAS ALL IN THE REAR. its a ladder bar car but some princible's should transfer. (i dont have any 4 link xper eence) anyways the right rear was pre loaded up hard about a 2 inch difference side to side and alot of suspension travel in front was taken out. now its a no hands on the wheel 6.80 / 1.44 60` car.
