Re: 1969 Chevelle L78 Monaco Orange

With street tires.... I used a set of QA1 12 position adjustable shocks. I painted them black so they're not a noticable. That eliminated all wheelhop. When I switched to Mickey Thompson ET Street tires.....the wheelhop came back.
The bottom line it the upper control arms MUST be higher on the rearend then the body.
Hope that helps, Kurt
