There are a couple cars on this board that have 1.2x 60fts on upr junk!

without tubs?..i just wanna hook on a dirt road

whats it take for a fatass cobra to hook like that?

I haven't had any problems with UPR or Team Z parts, but I have to say for "K" members I will only buy Anthony Jones Engineering (AJE). I have never tried AJE suspension components, but if they are like their "K" members, they are good.

My car will 60ft in the 1.2's on radials with UPR stuff. John Urist is much faster than that on UPR. And no 9.60 is not fast. I base this on everyone slower that me is not fast and everyone quicker than me is fast.

One other opinion on Maximum Motor Sports. If I where road racing I would consider nothing but MM. I feel they are the best in the business. I do feel for drag racing their stuff is too heavy and overbuilt. I really like Team Z's stuff and Dave @ Team Z seams to be about the nicest most helpful guy on the planet when it comes to getting your car going fast. I'd buy his stuff but I dont like the way his K-member drops the steering rack a full inch lower than stock. His rear suspension however is tits.

Im kinda with you on this one. Ive got MM everyshit under my car. Most of it in the rear is some of the same stuff you would probably use in a drag set up. My car is set up for the twisties but i have had it on the strip and with worn out nittos it hooked better than ever and went straight without an issue, and it is set up stiff. If you are looking for quality I can assure you it is there, customer service is great as well. I called them and told them what i had in my car and what i had plans for it and they set me up a suspension package. Is it gonna be the lightest out there, I doubt it. But i do feel you get your moneys worth

Racecraft if you want the best, but it's pricey. UPR is plenty good enough for what you want to do. Team Z is good, so is Wolfe.

I would say that they are all overkill for you so you mine as well save some money and get UPR.

i got some UPR uppers and solid housing bushings for sale

sounds good. thanks everyone for the info. this is the set-up im thinking...

Steeda Drag Springs
Strange 10 way adjustable shocks
Maximum Motorsports adjustable LCAs
UPR Pro series double adjustable UCAs
Team Z sway bar

is this over kill for a street car?
