Default Adjustable Dogbones

Has anybody ever played around with the dogbones? made custom replacement units w./ hiem joints?? Drilled holes in the front mounting plate and resetup the angle for a better launch?

just wondering... thanks!

Are you talking about the rear control arms? If so, there are a few places to get adjustable sets - VBP has 'em and I think some of the major Vette catalogs sell them too.

EDIT: VBP Trailing Arms

DRM make these apparently work for drags.Be nice to find out how far they move the mounts.

"DRM Trailing Arm Brackets alter the trailing arm mounting point locations taking some of the anti-squat out of the Corvette. The additional weight transfer results in improved traction. Improvement will be realized at autocross, road course and drag racing events. "
