    The Tokicos are adjustable.

    I have a new solid axle in my car that is still work in progress. Car is probably 630+ on the race tune.

    I use steeda weigh jacker lowers with delrum bushings on the chassis side / spherical on the axle side.


    Steeda also make a hardcore lower control arm if adjustable ride height is not something you want.


    I use steeda double adjustable uppers with spherical bushings on both sides.

    Housing Bushings.


    Pinion angle is set at -2.

    I am still waiting for my Miller Race Cars Anti Roll Bar which can be used with tail pipes.

    Do you run tail pipes or dumps on the car? Steeda has a new anti-roll bar that works with tail pipes also.

    There are many options out there that will work. Steeda is my choice of parts. I know some people also have good success with the HPM Mega Bite JR lower control arms. Dust off that credit card.
