torque arm

[junebug]

I have a modified and just curious what all u late model guys r running for torque arm spring/shock/ and location

[joedoozer]

300 spring, straight 3 valve shock (thinking of changing this to a 3-7). It's at 36" now, but I run it at 34" on 3/8 or shorter tracks.

were the same as joe, but we run at 34'' all the time. we ran a 3-7 for a short while and i didnt care for it as i felt 7 was to much rebound. if we would have had a 3-5 that wasnt already being used on the car i might have tried it. we just stuck the straight 3 back on and never touch it.

[junebug]

What was the prob with all that rebound? Too tight on entry? And when u guys shortened it to 34stay did u change rate at all or stay with 300

[joedoozer]

I stayed the same. As long as I am getting a decent amount of travel, I am fine with keeping the same spring.

We normally keep it at 34"...On a big 1/2 mile we do move it out farther..We went to a straight 5 valve wand we run a 325 or 300 spring depending...

[junebug]

30.5 is the longest I can make it without it hitting the x...what changes would u make since I have to run it so short?

we start the night on a 3 on rebound and change to a 5 rebound once the track blows off. If it goes absolutely dead slick and I mean lock down on the bottom of the track we'll go to a 7 but that's very minimal.
