Hey John, it's a Ladder bar rear w/stock front suspension w/90-10 shocks. It has a Turbo 400 w/trans brake, Dana 60 w/4.88 gears. It weighs 3060 dry, not sure of race weight. The stall is I think 5200, leave at 3600 & let it flash from there. The rr tires are 31x14 Good Years. Like I said it always ran the tires about 2 feet in the in the air. Took some weight out of the front & this is the result. Like I said I'm going to try bolting 10# to each side on the front of the frame horns. Think that will put things back in place.
Thanks, Ken





ken did you try a ladderbar adjustment? That's a hard hit with 4.88 gear, 5200 stall, and a turbo trans. I glide would probably tame it down some as would tightning down the front end. The 90-10 shock probably isn't helping either. When I used to run a 14-31 tire on my 74 duster I ran a 4.56 gear and a 4.88 gear with a 14-32.
