Nice pass! Was the reaction time that bad?  ;)

Can you tell much difference with the ARB? looks like the front rise is pretty level? Was it coming up less level prior? Mine twists so bad it looks broken... Then this non-sense happens!  :scratch:

If I could make one magically appear in that jungle gym of bars down there, I’d give it a shot. His rear suspension looks like it hangs pretty low.  Getting it to fit and remain street friendly is the issue on my setup. Experienced ladder bar guys swear an ARB is redundant if the car is setup “right”. I’ve given up on “right” at this point! I’m down for the easiest crutch to get me launching level. Not sure I can squeeze it in easily. Car really isn’t too bad all strapped down now, but I think I could hit some 1.2x 60’s if it would leave level.

I feel ya on the space part! Fitting mine under there was a hassle to say the least. I ended up having to run an extra chromoly bar across the frame and hang it down the middle.

Yes.  Not easy to fit. Not real street friendly either I wiul guess.
And yes it seems to help 60 ft times. I'm down to a 1.391 / 10.353 as of the other night.  No twist anymore
