we are looking for any suggestions on rear suspension setup mainly. everyone runs chevy here so chevy help is easy to come by but we cant seem to get our ford to turn. like i said we weigh 3650 without putting any weight back where we want it. also maybe gear selection we are running a 620 right now but are only turning around 6 grand on the tach. this could be because we scrub off so much speed in the corners or because of the push we dont know we do know the car wont turn what king of trailing arms are you running
