You can see in this pic just how long a 4th gen f-bod torque-arm is..


These are what gave me the idea (not that 4 zillion people haven't already thought of this!). I used to be a mechanic (ASE Master... ) and I worked on the third gen. cars a lot! Anyway, I got out because I didn't like dealing with the customers. Plus I had an oportunity to start my own business. Ok, TMI . Anyway, I just purchased Herb Adams book as suggested above, plus "Compitition Suspension" by Allan Staniforth via Amazon.

Thanks for all the good info,
You guys rock!
