How 2 Keep From Nosediving
I will have new springs, struts and shocks coming soon. What, other than that, can I do to my old '91 RS to keep the front from nosediving so bad when I put on the barkes ?
Thanks,
-Stryker-

I am just getting the stock replacement springs for right now. I will be going with the Hooker Long tube headers soon and I don't want any clearance issues.

adjust the rear brakes tighter. but the springs and struts will be the biggest help.
