Having problems with the tow-in of my tires when dragracing.Will this sop the tow-in? How does the centerlink perform when normal driving/towing?
Will it wear my tires quicker? THX

It will alleviate most of the tow in when you race, you still need to lower the t-bars though for the best results. As far as daily driving, several of my customers run them daily, they just say it cuts the turning radius down about 3'. Other than that, you could end up with some more cupping if you do alot of sharp turns etc...

what do you suggest? Just the braces or centerlink for the longivity of the front end and tires?

That's all that I run, 65K on mine with no slop;and as long as my bars are dropped all the way down, I launch straight as an arrow.

Chad, finally got the pit&id braces on today, had it aligned and also did the washer trick so when at the track i can back the tbars down and when finished put them back where they were. If it holds maybe a 10.5????

What is this washer trick, and what is the purpose of it?

I learned this trick from here just reading how to drag race. When lowering the front of your truck for racing( AND I DON'T THINK U DO! LOL) see how many washers will fit between the bolt head and the keys so after racing you can just zip it back into place with out any guess work or counting turns.
