![]() Anybody running either of these products? Are you running them together or with different springs/struts? What shock are you running out back? I am trying to come up with a good compromise for my street/strip car.

![]() I have seen cars use the Eibach Drag launch Kit.. and the lakewood 90/10's 50/50's and it seems to work really GOOD! But the Hard part is installing tthe springs.. they are a REAL PAIN!

![]() I use the Eibach Drag kit, and Lakewoods. 90/10's, 50/50's.
I thought the springs were quite easy to install. I een did it in my dirt driveway last year. A spring compressor makes short work of them.

![]() exgmguy, what tires are you running to get the mid 1.7 60-ft. times? Did you also remove your sway bar? How does it handle with the 90/10s? Are you also running control arms or SSM lift bars? thanks!

![]() I ran the 60 ft on 275/60/15 BFG Drag radials, but also ran the same 60 ft on ET Streets at a different POS slippery track.
In the rear I have stock lower control arms with Lakewood slapper bars. |

![]() I did remove the front sway bar, and the rear you have to remove with the traction bars. I think the car handles fine. I can't fly around corners, but it is definitely safe unlike the popular opinion of my set up.

![]() Thanks for the info! I have been wanting to run the Tokico adj. drag struts, but damn they're expensive! I might just go with the 90/10's, Eibach drag springs, and eventually switch from the Factory Five control arms to some SSM lift bars.
