I have SLP level one suspension and it blows, i have $hit loads of wheel hop, i need something new and i dont really want to spend any more than 400 for front and back shocks and springs.
Also can you tell me how much a panhard would help out, and how much a BMR torque arm would help out my traction problems.

 

ttt....help help help!!!

 

any one????

 

Try some bmr boxed lcas and a bmr torque arm, it'll help out a bit.

 

If wheel hop is your main concern.
Put on some good LCAs with relocating brackets and your problem will go away.

 

BMR is the way to go:

Very well constructed, and great customer service, I have purchased all of my suspension products from them. Brett's the man!!!

lca relocation brackets
lightweight lca's
shorter torque arm (adjustable)
stickier, bigger tires
remove front sway bar
let your rear springs age, leave 'em there.
adjustable shocks ($40-400 each, you choose)


IMO, panhard bar is not a big deal, you can check to see if you need one by measuring the distance between the inside of your rear rims to the inside of your wheel well. If one side is more than 1/2 inch off, you can use the adjustable panhard to center your rear-end.

 

Yeah I almost forgot, get a pair of competition engineering adjustable drag shocks....They're only 80 a pair and work great.

 

Ok..so those comp. shocks, lower control arms...and a torque arm? is that good

 

I agree, I'd rather buy comp engineering shocks every year than a set of HAL's. Same compression numbers, period. I'm sure some will argue.

 

get the lca brackets while you're down there, they aren't expensive.

 

since your gonna be driving this on the street do not remove the front sway bar no need to take a corner and kill yourself just get some nice lca's and some good springs for now personally i would get dms springs and later a tourque arm and some nice shocks.

 

Joe I just got off the phone with a guy who's parting out his z and has full suspension, contact me for details.

 

Get the LCA relo brackets and see if things improve. The SLP Level 1 is a great kit for the street, but they should've included the relo brackets - even the small 1" drop totally screws up the LCA geometry.

 

hey joe to correct stik93 its a 2000 ss and it has way to many parts to list.....even a 12 bolt 409 stroked moter etc......

call me

later
