limit the front end travel load down the arms with big bolts7/8 and jam nuts weld nuts on the top a arms and the bolts it will hit the frame were the rubber bummpers were more you screw them in the less front end travel you will have. this may help or you may have to take out some pinon angel :HMMM:
exactly...if you have adjustable shocks you can stiffen the rebound all the way...you can also limit the travel with cable...pats way is the best tho if you dont have double adj shocks up front...the idea is to keep the front wheels up in the fenderwell which in effect makes the front end heavier...it really doesnt but the motor thinks it is bc it doesnt see the weight transfer and now has to power the wheels up....another way is to take some gear out of it...with the juice you wont lose any 60'...i went to a 4.10 and the car would leave level...its first motion was straight ahead instead of straight up...60' times picked up, PLUS it'll mph more

Yup, me too. Looks like one of them one post and gone deals to me. Tailights don't really look like a Malibu, either. Of course, not being a chebbie guy I'm probably wrong........ Anyway, don't ya just hate it when that happens?????:LOL: :LOL: :LOL:
i was kinda having the same problem, wondering if he fixed his. :rolleyes:
yeah thats a malibu. from the tail lights id say its either a 79 or 80. if it was a clearer pic id know for sure which year
What kind of rear suspension do you have? If it's a 4-link or ladder bars, you should be able to adjust that problem right out of it. My car lifted too, (not as bad), and I was able to get the car to come off the line just like a pro stock. Let me know what suspension you have, and I'll try and help you if I can.
