DRACER4883dragster chassis ride height
I recently purchased a 2005 235" Undercover 4-Link dragster, car sets low at rear. Does anyone know what the ride height should be front & rear? I've tried looking up "Undercover Motorsports" to ask them, but I haven't had any luck finding a website or phone number?

DRACER4883"from bottom of bar" you mean bottom of chassis at mid plate correct? I'll measure it tonight, but I think that will make it have about 1 1/2" of rake down hill from rear to front. Just seems like a lot.

DRACER4883Thanks for the info everyone! I measured it last night and it was at 3 1/4" inches so I'll get it raised up and see how it works.

NC3x58Might want to check your shock spring rate.. Previous owner could have had an aluminum block instead of iron, and if you have iron it could cause the setup to be way off... Just something to consider.
