Economic Recovery-Pontiac StyleDouble Nuts Are Better
Do you want your stock front shocks to act somewhat like drag shocks? Screw a second nut to the top of each front shock until there's full thread contact on the shaft. Loosen the retaining nut at the rubber bushing until it contacts and locks against the nut you installed so that they can't loosen while racing. On launch, the front end will lift instantly to take up the slack on the shock shaft, and transfer weight much more quickly to improve traction instead of fighting the extension. This didn't work for a prominent F.A.S.T. racer because the shock to the chassis once the slack was taken up on the shock's shaft caused the rear tires to break loose. But remember, this type of racing requires a near-stock-size, bias-ply street tire.
