Hey just getting back into the street stock division. I bought a used car and have been tuning it up over the winter. Our track here in PA allows us to use anything we want for rear trailing arms. I am thinking about buying adjustable tubes and using heims instead of the stock bushings. http://www.circletracksupply.com/product.php?productid=4372&cat=217&page=1 these are what I was thinking of buying. It looks like adjusting the rear end lead and pinion angle would easily be adjusted. Does anyone think it would be a big advantage. I would imagine the rear end would be a lot more free which would be a big advantage. Just looking for some advise thank you

Anything is better than those stock arms, and yes keeping everything free is key, thats why people put the monoballs in the stock arms. The stock arms arent strong enough. I had a lower Left arm break and the car flipped 5 times end over end. Not something you want to do. Those look nice. Just some advice, keep the rearend square.

Thanks for the reply and advise Dave. I see a lot of street stocks lifting the left front on Facebook. Is this something my car will do with the "more free" rear end. Should I think about a stiffer spring/shock for the rr?
