Unsure if the springs are after market or it is a tornado thing. Sent from my SM-G920I using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back before superpro made the poly Pads.We did the back end of TurboKnapps Old F6 a few years ago, spring eye bushes in poly,springs pads and a small diameter whiteline sway bar. It all really helps the car hook up and the sway bar helps stop it unloading one tire due to the torque reaction. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
