Spinning Problem (Help!)

Wraith · 03-11-2003, 02:27 AM

Hey guys I have 3:73 gears and quite a bit rearend hp for my 95 GT mustang. When I take off I tend to stay in the same place for couple of seconds till my tires catch grip. I believe its because of the gears i put in. I heard a way to help this problem would be to buy lower control arms. If this is true how would it help. Would I have to buy the lower and upper or would I be ok with just the lower to fix the problem. Any advice would be great. Thanks guys!

I have HP Megabite Jrs on my '85 w/3.73's. They work very well. In addition to planting the rear-end, they help by decreasing brake dive under hard braking. CCM and MM recommend using stock or HD/Police Package rear UCA's, polyurethanes bind and aren't recommended for the street. MM also has a rear LCA, which I may try next, because they say they allow more sideways movement and don't bind under hard cornering. I am more interested in handeling for my car than drag racing. You won't completely eliminate wheelspin without sticky tires and/or practicing your launch however.
