I was wondering if anybody with drag trucks with stock susp could tell me how the stock front suspension feels at 120-130mph?? I'm up to doing coil overs but would like to stick with the stock front if it doesn't get squirrley on top end. Thanks guys!

having drag shocks on the front end made my truck wander a little. I ended up putting some adjustable limiting straps on it and now its all good. stock 50/50 valved shocks, i dont remember it being that bad.

My first one was great, the second was ok, but scarier 8O I don't think the current one will see 120-130 any time soon 8)
