[QUOTE="Dalamar, post: 7441, member: 8116"] I went through suspension 101 over the winter on my car. Maximum Motorsports saved my ass. Here's a read on what I did: I explain this in there. [url]http://www.sn95forums.com/forum/index.php?topic=1081.msg13966#msg13966[/url] According to MM, and other sources, the stock upper design is flawed. it has a loose bushing and ovald holes to allow slop so it doesn't bind as it articulates. PPl who swap to solid uppers and lowers experience bind which transfers into the floor of the car. And will damage the torque box over time. For just drag racing, solid uppers and lowers are ok, but for street driving - where the axle is articulating, bad news. This info is from MM - feel free to call them yourself if you want confirmation. Uppers seem to be a fad, like underdrive pulleys were a few years ago. they are a cheap fix for drag launches. If you want your car to perform well on the street, and last, I wouldnt do it. [/QUOTE]
