Im looking for general theories to make a RWD IRS setup get more traction. Specifically what do vette guys do.

I know a solid rear is easy, just get a panhard, tbars, crank up the suspension, etc. Anything like parts, concepts, tricks, tips, whatever is welcome. Thanks.

Polyurethane Differential Bushings, Rear Subframe Bushings, Control Arm Bushings, Heavy Duty Rear Tie Rod Ends.

Thats for Mustangs of course, but it should help some, seeing as how Mustangs are probably harder to hook than Corvettes.

Panhard bar doesn't do anything for traction. It's all about getting the joint angles right, and keeping the knuckles from twisting.

dont you have a stick out back? Obviously using solid or poly bushing is good, thanks for that will. I know a madass sway bar, camber adjustments and trailing arms(??) help vettes.

WHERE are you jon???

Thanks guys, keep it up.

what he said , i stick alot better with better shocks, diff polly bush, larger sway bar with pollys and of course wider tires, alot of the lincoln guy like to go with 3.55:1 in the rear w/ posi so they dont break them loose just mashing the gas and they have more run out on the gears
