Well I discovered this after reading about it but I heard you still need something else to complete it.

I heard about the zl1 toe bars but not sure what way I can save the most money on the setup. I don't track it and never will. I only some aggressive street driving 6 months out of the year. What's three recommended setup here?

Thanks guys.

That package is complete and will eliminate wheel hop. Some might recommend differential bushings, but I never would for a street car.

May I ask why? Stiffness or something?

They cause a lot of NVH (Noise/vibration/harshness) and are not really necessary unless you're building a drag car. We've also seen the poly differential bushings soften up and gain some slop over time.

Hey Tyler,

The superlube bushing grease you sell - do you need a grease gun for the zerk fittings?

I have 22s and no wheel hop,I'm not using anything that gets routinely listed.The first smart move IMO is our new diff bushings. Our bushings havnt been produced until now so dont let anyone get you confused We have toerods and trailing arms and you may need them but we can go over your setup and get you what you need but nothing more.

And this package doesn't affect ride quality too much right?

Yes, you will need a grease gun.

Not much at all. You'll notice increased stability with slightly more road noise, but overall ride quality will not suffer. Most importantly: Wheel hop will be gone!

NVH - it all depends on peoples sensitivity to it. For Street use, it could drive most people crazy
