Hi Guys,
Thought I would start a new thread, for those who follow my posts you will know I have been doing a fair bit of work to my J, 360, 8.25", sway bars, A arms, solid sub frame mounts etc
Finally gave her a good blast tonight, she pulls hard, feels good when the vac secondary's open up. 60mph and she holds a dead straight line, feels real nice eh!
The jelly wobbly rear end movement is gone with the nolathane spring pads, its just a pleasure to drive, before you had to drive it and be careful, now you can swing it around and it just takes it, sits there and goes well!
Anyway here is a quick vid I took on my test drive, just remember the rear end has gone from 2.2 to 3.21 so there is change of 1.46, so 85mph/1.46 = actual 58mph
I still recon I can get some more advance out of it and sort my 2" to 2.5" exhaust and gain some more performance.
I am still working on things but to all the guys who have offered advice along the way many thanks!
Thanks
Bruce
